    That is true and a common rule to prevent someone from just talking over everyone else. It doesn’t mean they’ll just get cut, at least not at this level. They’ll finish their piece and then the mic is turned off while the other person is responding.

        Yup, but they don’t cut their mike right at the time limit. That would be hilarious, but moderators chosen for presidential debates like their job and personal brand that keeps them employed.
