The likely result of this rule change will be to prevent interruption by President Donald Trump, who spent a large part of the first debate trying to talk over Joe Biden, at one point interrupting him ten times as he tried to answer just one question.

Even prior to this, the president’s debate coaches were warning him that his constant interruptions were part of why viewers declared Biden the winner of the first debate, and were urging him to control himself and let his opponent talk.
