30. If Trump Will "Absolutely" Tell The Truth

Then it would be to Trump's advantage for the moderators to fact check the candidates. That being the case then I think we can be absolutely sure that Mike Pence is lying here when he says Trump will tell the truth. It is what they do 70% of the time after all - and that 70% doesn't even include the "somewhat true but misleading" statements.
