As indicated in the article, United States v. Williams, 553 U.S. 285 (2008).
Free speech does not cover pandering an illegal act. If what you’re saying is eliciting an actual illegal act, that’s not covered by free speech.
Trump asked election officials to change an outcome of an election. That is asking someone to violate 52 USC § 10307. Asking some to violate United States Title Code is not protected speech.
I like the comparison of a robber going into a bank with a piece of paper saying “put all the money in the bag or else” and then getting indignant “Ohhh well I guess WRITING IS ILLEGAL NOW”
