They are challenging the former president to explain why he and his lawyers have disputed key allegations at the center of their charge that he incited a violent mob to storm the Capitol.

The request from House impeachment managers does not require Trump to appear, but it does warn that any refusal to testify could be used at trial to support arguments for a conviction.
