But that’s still not actually a debate. It is in interview panel.
But the questions would be about things people actually care about. Nobody cares about Gaza when they are struggling to feed their family.
Mods should only be time-keepers and just introduce a topic, but not an actual question. For instance: Illegal Immigration - Mr. Biden, you have two minutes. Then Mr. Trump, you have two minutes. Then, Mr. Biden, you may ask Mr. Trump one question and he has two minutes to respond. Then Mr. Trump you may ask Mr. Biden one question and he has two minutes to respond. Then next topic. That would be useful.
Like lawyers for each side getting to ask questions of witnesses on direct and cross examination. That would give each candidate a chance to talk about both their positive agenda/proposals, as well as have to respond to criticisms.

Well said.
