So, I guess encouraging a mob to hang Pence is also an "official act" and immune.

basically making a coup legal as long as you discuss it with your vice president. moreover, this way of argumentation that ignores obvious context and treats all reasoning like we're in a law school seminar is just straight-up gaslighting.
