Trump claims Clinton does not have 'stamina' to be president

Donald Trump claimed in Monday's US presidential debate that his rival Hillary Clinton does not have the "stamina" to be president, hitting at the Democrat after a recent bout of pneumonia.

"I said she doesn't have the stamina. And I don't believe she does have the stamina. To be president of this country, you need tremendous stamina," Trump said.


Clinton fired right back: "Well, as soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a ceasefire, a release of dissidents... or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina."

With six weeks until election day and polls showing a virtual dead heat, the Democrat Clinton repeatedly questioned her rival's fitness to serve in the Oval Office.
