Would the republic have been better served had they found Pence, taken him captive and made an example of him for the world to see?
Lol... I can only answer that question with a question;
Being that the White House, the Capitol building of the USA, is the most heavily guarded, well defended, and secure piece of real estate on the planet... What makes you think an un-armed pro-Trump band of morons was actually capable of circumventing its 24/7/365 contingencies against attack so easily...? Why isn't the current administration "embarrassed" about that?

And, who gives a damn about Pence? I can think of several more worthy adversaries to make examples of...

I am not privy to the information that would answer your first question with certainty.

What do I personally think...?
I think that Trump ignited a mob and then window dressed with a little talk about being "peaceful" with the tacit intent of wanting them to storm the place. Which they did.

What do I wonder...?
I wonder if Pelosi and Schumer saw it coming and let it happen to gain leverage. If so, it worked. It kept Trump in the news as the fire starter of an "insurrection" and gave them a mid term gain. A couple of dead people resulted, but not an apparent matter of concern. Damaging Donny was the prize.

Watching video of the fools breaking down doors and windows was a sad day.
But karma may have balanced the scales on Pelosi.

And your assessment of Pence? It's a lot different than mine.

"And, who gives a damn about Pence?"

Not at all what I would expect to see from someone who bangs on the Jesus/Christianity drum as much as you do Tony.
Franky, your brand of Christianity is starting to look midieval or reconstruction era....in this post...to me.
