TFG was happy with the concept of VP Pence being hanged if that meant he could stay at POTUS. If VP Pence was killed in this attack, that would have been an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act and declare martial (not Marshall) law.

A former aide to Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told the House January 6 committee that then-President Donald Trump had suggested to Meadows he approved of the "hang Mike Pence" chants from rioters who stormed the US Capitol, two sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
Cassidy Hutchinson, the former aide, also testified that Trump complained about his then-vice president being hustled to safety while Trump supporters breached the Capitol, the sources said.
Hutchinson has answered the panel's questions during three separate sessions, CNN previously reported. She went over "new ground" with the committee last week, though it was not immediately clear what was discussed during that deposition.
Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich said that "vague leaks" from the "partisan" committee is "just an extension of the Democrat smear campaign that has been exposed time and time again for being fabricated and dishonest," adding that "Americans are tired of the Democrat lies and the charades, but, sadly, it's the only thing they have to offer."
I was amused when Pence campaign for Kemp and others in Georgia this week
