I'm not a lawyer, but "HANG THEM" sounds like an incitement to violence — whereas encouragement to follow the law by resisting an illegal command to commit a violent act does not.
More reporting:
"Trump was reacting to a video that reminded members of the military that they are not supposed to obey illegal orders."
“SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” Mr. Trump wrote in one of the posts, & he shared another saying to "HANG THEM."
