It was a terrifying scene that left many wondering about the future of the country’s democracy.
One surprising target of the protesters' rage wasMike Pence.
They took cover in his office, but his Secret Service detail felt they weren’t safe enough there.

That’s when Pence reportedly did something surprising.
“I trust you, Tim, but you’re not driving the car,” he allegedly said.
“If I get in that vehicle, you guys are taking off.

I’m not getting in the car.”
He replied, “No.
I thought he was well-protected, and I had heard that he was in good shape.”
