Nah, its not that they were trespassing. Its that they were trespassing while shouting that they were going to hang pence. It was because they were part of a group that attacked police officers. The goal of the trespassing counts.
There are different narratives describing J6. Not everyone who entered the capitol was calling for a Pence hanging. Some who never entered the Capitol were later arrested for somehow trespassing on the surrounding grounds (because of unannounced security protocols). The number of undercover FBI agents present among the J6 protestors has never been revealed, and the FBI has a history of inciting terror to obtain convictions.
