yeah, he killed Rhaegar, but Rhaegar wasn't the king
and truth is, Rhaegar probably wasn't gonna be king cause if things had kept going the direction they was going, the Mad King was probably gonna take him out and just put Vicerys on the throne
Mad King was mad paranoid and thought Rhaegar was plotting on him. So eventually tht was going to come to a head.
