Can you comprehend that the mob erected a gallows outside
Yes, a toy gallows, I remember. Not a gallows required for hanging someone. Duh.


and was breaking into Senate Chambers looking for Mike Pence so they could take him out and hang him?
Absolutely no evidence even remotely suggests that. The toy gallows was symbolic. Obviously.

I can't believe you actually fell for it.

The gallows were a prop. It wouldn't have held any weight and the noose had rope wrapped around a soft drink can or some such. It wouldn't slip if used.

It was terrorism, in other words. Like a burning cross.
