So this might not be a coup at all and just a president who’s pissed at his underlings

If that's the case than the president shouldn't be the focus but a constitutional convention.

Well I meant more for people who take issue with the president doing this as 'autocratic' or 'dictatorial'.
Merely pointing out that if they are so concerned than the constitution shouldn't allow them the power to do that.
I have no issue on it since I don't know enough about the situation.
Granted I don't favor a strong executive anymore like I used to.

In the UK the PM can dissolve parliament for reelection, and in Russia the President can fire the Prime Minister. Many countries allow this.

Yes but the UK PM can only ask the monarch to dissolve the parliament. They can’t unilaterally do it themselves. And technically, while no monarch in recent times has done it, the monarch can refuse to dissolve the parliament

The head of state in a lot of Presidential systems can consider themselves as having the power to suspend the legislature temporarily in a crisis, if not hold new elections. Though if the President keeps it suspended and doesn't hold new elections, then it certainly would be a coup.

When will Tunisia's economy recover?
If this question is not answered, this fragile model of democracy will soon return to its traditions like other Arab countries.
