Does anyone think that the cast of "Hamilton" would have talked to "Uncle" Joe the way they did VP-Elect Pence?

From the sound/video bite I saw, it was the Character AARON Burr that did the talking. Not sure I got it right but it seems that he was the only real vocal one. The audience was much more vocal with their booing of VP-elect Pence.
There are several ways the actor could have made his point without being disrespectful. Something like "We have some concerns about your potential policies caused by the portrayal of Mr. Trump and you in the press and during the campaign." Something like that would have made the point and maintained the air of respect and courtesy.
Or course most of the Arts elit don't think that either Trump or Pence deserves courtesy and respect.

    The first error was expecting anything but statist prattle from a fictional account of Hamilton that pretends he was a hero when he was in fact the biggest traitor to individual liberty in the history of America. (Although I admit Lincoln, FDR, LBJ, Clinton, and Obama were trying hard to win that dishonor.)

      The only credit I'll give Obama is that he told the country exactly what he was planning -- "... Fundamentally change America" That is exactly what he did. He followed Alinski's play book right down the line. All he needed was another term as president. Hillary was the Chosen vessel, but the public woke up just in time.

    Had they done that to Biden they would have been booed off the stage, the cast would be fired, the showed removed from Broadway, and the producer/writer blacklisted from the industry.
