Senators will have 16 hours to ask questions of the defense and prosecution.

It has been reported that it would be with written questions.

This will take place before any votes, according to Senate rules, is my understanding?

Maybe the Republican Senators will be more attentive if they get to ask questions?

If so, the defense will just run out the clock with word salad filler.

I don't know but I would guess it would include the questioner?
