First Trump tweeted about how it was all up to Mike Pence not to let him down.

Then he gave a speech to the crowd telling them it all depended on Mike Pence doing his bidding, even as he knew that Pence wouldn't.

Then he told the mob to go to the capitol to watch to see who was on their side

At the capitol someone in the mob erected what appears to be a functional gallows.

They stormed the Capitol. Once inside many were heard to be actively looking for Mike Pence in order to kill him.

Some in the crowd chanted "HANG MIKE PENCE"

And to top it all off AFTER THE CROWD HAD BREACHED THE CAPITOL, perhaps the very moment they were asking aloud where Pence was, and chanting "HANG MIKE PENCE", Trump ***sent out a tweet attacking Mike Pence.***

Donald Trump put his own Vice President's life in danger. It's as clear as day, and it's wild to me that Republican politicians are just gonna shrug that off.
