It would be the right thing to do, but, as you say, it won't happen. And, of course, there's the potential for Joe Biden to say something untrue. (He's done it in the past.) Do they stop the debate for that too and fact check him and badger him? It isn't both-siderism to say both sides have to play by the same rules. I just don't think stopping the debate would work. And, yes, I understand Trump's lies are not in the same category as Biden's but then you get into watching the Lie-O-Meter which goes from Little White LIe to Pants-On-Fire, Holy Crap, Holocaust Denial Lunacy. Stopping the debate just won't work.
