to seek a conviction of any charge.
There is a much simpler answer....... CHANGE THE LAW!
If you honestly believe these actions are so criminal so incredibly dangerous to present a danger to society and the democratic process then change the law.
There are already dozens of prohibited locations make within 100? 200? 500? feet of a national political event a prohibited location.
Done. Guy shows up with a gun and he will be asked to leave. If he doesn't he is charged with tresspassing, gets felony conviction, loses right to carry for rest of his life.
Why reach for a non-crime? Legislatures update statutes all the time.
