One of former President Donald Trump’s lead impeachment attorneys says he did not wear a yarmulke on the Senate floor during the first day of arguments because he “didn’t want to offend anyone.”

David Schoen, who practices Orthodox Judaism, made waves on the internet Tuesday for resting his hand on top of his head each time he took a sip of water while making his opening argument.

Several internet users noted Schoen’s seemingly unusual drinking habit, with some even suggesting he was trying to keep a toupee from falling.

In reality, Schoen, as an observant Jew, must cover his head and say a blessing whenever he eats or drinks.

Asked on Tuesday why he declined to wear his yarmulke, a head covering for Jewish males, during his appearance on the Senate floor, the president’s attorney told a CNN reporter, “I just wasn’t sure if it was appropriate, frankly.”

“I didn’t want to offend anyone,” Schoen continued.

When pressed by the reporter on why wearing a yarmulke would offend anyone, Schoen said he did not know if it would, but added, “It’s just an awkward thing and people stare at it.”

Schoen could not immediately be reached by The Post for comment on whether he would wear the head covering for the remaining days of the trial.

Asked by the reporter if he planned to wear a yarmulke in upcoming proceedings, Schoen said he did not know.

He did, however, note that Senate leaders had “been very gracious about this whole Sabbath observance.”

The lead impeachment lawyer was seen walking into the Capitol Wednesday wearing a yarmulke, but it is not clear if he took it off before the start of the trial.

The attorney is serving as one of the former commander-in-chief’s top lawyers in his second impeachment trial.

In his capacity representing the former president, Schoen blasted House impeachment managers for their use of what he deemed deceptively edited video evidence during the trial.

Speaking to Fox News Tuesday evening, Schoen took aim at lead impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) and his use of what the attorney saw as misleading visual elements.

“It’s very easy to stand up and show spliced and manufactured films,” he argued.

Schoen was referring specifically to a lengthy video montage shown by Raskin on the first day of Senate arguments in Trump’s second impeachment trial.
