Trump's lawyers confirm their playbook for impeachment is to argue that the charges are 'deficient' and should be immediately thrown out
Reuters
The sources working with Trump's legal team did not go into the specifics of their argument, but said the articles of impeachment "constitutionally invalid" and should be rejected. The sources did not say whether they would ask for a motion to dismiss the case, but did say the impeachment case should be rejected, arguing that the "articles of impeachment are deficient on their face."
The longer document filed on Monday detailed Trump's legal team's arguments as to why the articles are "constitutionally invalid."
