No he didn't commit an insurrection. He attempted one, I'm sure that's hard to grasp as someone who has never passed meaningful legislation but the idea is to actually achieve something other than a pile of useless paperwork.

Insurrection: an organized attempt by a group of people to defeat their government and take control of their country, usually by violence.

Success is not necessary for it to be an insurrection.
