It means "rules for you but not for me", it means you have to follow the rules but not me
Trump: Rules for thee but not for me, you gotta release your tax returns but I don't have to do it because.... reasons.... bullshit... excuses....

It should be "rules for thee and rules for me, rules for all of us!" We must all follow the rules.

Usually a phrase said when cops abuse their power doing things as if they're above the law, it's a saying when someone believes they have authority over the law to do whatever they want.
Person 1: "holy shit... did you see that cop just blow through that red light?"
Person 2: "rules for thee but not for me"

Someone imposing rules on others while consciously breaking them themselves, like telling someone to stop doing something mean to them while doing the same mean thing to many others seconds ago.
A and B: *Pushes C*

C: *Pushes in self-defense*

A: "Stop pushing you stupid son of a bitch!"

B: "Yeah! Moron!"

C: "You were LITERALLY pushing me seconds ago!"

A: "It's cuz you're lower leveled than us!"

B: "Haha n00b!"

C: "Rules for thee but not for me."

(Based on a real interaction with a couple of people in a game. Words said here don't completely match with what was said in the game.)
