Mike Pence gave an interview today making clear the apparent stunt was to get all the electors tossed and then let the house GOP vote him into a second term.

Thank you. I’d love to have, if those tens of thousands of people would be allowed, the military, the secret service, and we want to thank you, and the police law enforcement. Great. You’re doing a great job, but I’d love it if they could be allowed to come up here with us.
