So Walz will try to find the lies and Vance will claim everything is a lie since they can't stop him?

Yeah, this system makes no sense. How are they supposed to fact check each other?

"That's a lie." "Not uh."

You see, one party lies with every breath. So they are not supposed to fact check "each other"...

By completely ignoring any lies and speaking only to the issues.

If Walz maintains possession of the ball, then Vance can't win.
