Watch the video on the politifact page.

It was easy to foresee the intent of Trump's play...to disrupt/prevent certification.

There is some reason to think there was a plot to assassinate Pence, since he wasn't 'coming through.' He could then be replaced with an even more reliable person. One of the offspring, perhaps.

I think I'm just playing with black ideas. Hanging Pence would of course be going way too far. Wouldn't it?

A signal to the nefarious nature of Trump's intent were the pronouncements of General Flynn.

No, I said that the Senate might take Pence's assassination amiss and that it could therefore backfire in purpose. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
