If they had killed Mike Pence I have absolute faith they would have been thrown in jail forever and the Speaker would have taken over his duties certifying the election. If all that's standing between us and fascism/anarchy is 2,000 people choosing to walk into the Capitol we are already lost.

It’s possible in such a scenario they would have replaced him with someone who was willing to decertify the election and initiate a contested election, which would have then enabled Trump to be installed over Joe Biden.
