One can do an impersonation “truthfully”, in the sense that everyone is aware it’s an act. See: Elvis performers. I believe the phrase falsely impersonate is to imply that you were employing an impersonation under false pretense, i.e. someone assumes you are someone else and you play into that misconception.
isn’t “falsely impersonate” redundant?
