38. Bullshit.

We've seen it done in other presidential debates and we've seen it done in recent debates this cycle -- see Boebert's recent debate -- by actually qualified moderators who take their responsibility seriously rather than talking heads who just show up and go through the motions.

If moderators are just there to ask questions, might as well just post the questions on a screen and have the camera and mic (cut off) guys do the work and save on money.

It shouldn't be up to one candidate to use all their allotted time factchecking the obvious and blatant lies being spewed by another candidate.
