Trump Rioters Wanted to Find and Hang Mike Pence, Reuters Reporter and Eyewitness Says

 Supporters of President Donald Trump who stormed and invaded the Capitol on Wednesday reportedly intended to find and execute Vice President Mike Pence. 

Reuters News Pictures Editor Jim Bourg revealed in a Twitter post that he heard “at least 3 different rioters at the Capitol say they hoped to find Vice President Mike Pence and execute him by hanging him from a Capitol Hill tree as a traitor.”

“It was a common line being repeated,” he added. “Many more were just talking about how the VP should be executed.”

All because Mike Pence actually followed his constitutional duty to affirm that Joe Biden would be the next President of the United States. Not that Mike Pence is a hero or a profile in courage he isn't. He does however want to run for president in 2024.
