Genuinely curious to see how this is handled w/r/t 1A

Same way they handle it when you lie to an insurance agent or lie on the stand as a witness. 1A doesn't mean you can say whatever you want whenever you want. We already restrict certain types of speech with little issue.

How so? There's a right to freedom of expression, but is there a right to impersonate a president with intent to deceive people and impact election results?

I think elections have stricter laws but I agree I will be curious how they get charged.
