EXCERPT:
BIDEN: "No... I am going to — as long as the commission continues down the street as they have, I will debate him. I know for certain that I will try — I will be a fact-checker on the floor while I am debating him. But, look, one thing that has gone on so far is the vast majority, with notable exceptions of the news media have been fact-checking the things said during the convention, and it’s just one lie after another, lie, lie, lie, one after another. But the debates will take place. It had been recommended to me by a number of very competent people who know their way, including leading Republicans, that I should not debate Trump unless there’s a fact checker on the ground, in their in the debates, saying that’s true, that’s not true. But, look, I think everybody knows this man has a somewhat pathological tendency not to tell the truth."
