On Friday night, Vice President-elect Mike Pence attended a showing of Hamilton in New York City on Friday night. However, the reception he found from theater-goers was not the warmest, as many booed him. At the end of the musical, the cast issued a message to him, stating that:
We, sir — we — are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights. We truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us.
President-elect Donald Trump did not take kindly to these remarks, going on Twitter and calling it “harassment.”
Our wonderful future V.P. Mike Pence was harassed last night at the theater by the cast of Hamilton, cameras blazing.This should not happen!

He went on in a later tweet to state that the theater is supposed to be a “safe and special place” and that the cast of Hamilton should apologize:
The Theater must always be a safe and special place.The cast of Hamilton was very rude last night to a very good man, Mike Pence. Apologize!
