Realizing that the wrong person was elected by a combination of loopholes in the election process, foreign involvement and then doing something about it is not a 'coup' with the current usage of the word.
In this case, 'wrong person' would be someone who is unable to discharge the duties of the office, someone who is using the office to enrich himself, his family and minions at the expense of the tax payer, and who makes decisions based on factors other than what is best for the country.
