According to Twitter's public statement, Trump's rule violation was incitement of violence, not "advocating for the abolition of his own government."
The Ayatollah has repeatedly tweeted in support of the violent destruction of the state of Israel. If that's not incitement of violence, I don't know what is.

If the ayatollah was saying “go here and destroy this building” and it got done then they’d ban him based on this precedent It’s also a funny argument to me because you have people comparing trump to the ayatollah and mao and thinking it helps their case.
