Two sets of rules, just like the Constitution call for. We will see how this works out when the DOJ investigation results come in.

Sounds like he was advocating to overthrow the government. Title 18., Part I., Chapter 115., Section 2385. Advocating overthrow of Government: "Whoever knowingly or willfully advocates, abets, advises, or teaches the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying the government of the United States or the government of any State, Territory, District or Possession thereof, or the government of any political subdivision therein, by force or violence, or by the assassination of any officer of any such government; or

Whoever, with intent to cause the overthrow or destruction of any such government, prints, publishes, edits, issues, circulates, sells, distributes, or publicly displays any written or printed matter advocating, advising, or teaching the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying any government in the United States by force or violence, or attempts to do so; or

Whoever organizes or helps or attempts to organize any society, group, or assembly of persons who teach, advocate, or encourage the overthrow or destruction of any such government by force or violence; or becomes or is a member of, or affiliates with, any such society, group, or assembly of persons, knowing the purposes thereof—

Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction."

The President is NOT the Government. Like it or not, the US House is controlled by Democrats and they are well within their rights to impeach.

SSG Matthew Adkins - The Office of the President is a branch of the Government. To overthrow the President is overthrowing the Executive Branch which is overthrowing the government. To call for an impeach well within their rights, but not calling for a coup or advocating one.

You misunderstand the word "coup".

"1. A brilliantly executed stratagem; a triumph.
2.
a. A coup d'état.
b. A sudden appropriation of leadership or power; a takeover: a boardroom coup.
3. Among certain Native American peoples, a feat of bravery performed in battle, especially the touching of an enemy's body without causing injury."
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/coup

Merriam-Webster gives the same definitions. The word coup, by itself, does not imply 'force, violence, or assassination'. You have erroneously inferred it.

I agree but whenever they complain, they get shut down by the Dems and the media
