For example, one of the points that Trump's lawyers opened their case with was their condemnation that this impeachment was being held during an election year, something that has never been done before. Sorry, but the impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson was held in March 1868, A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR.

Lawyers Aren’t Supposed To Lie In Court, But Bolton Shows Trump’s Already May Have

Unlike a real courtroom, though, making false claims on the Senate floor in an impeachment trial does not appear to carry any sanctions.
