Voters pick Biden over Trump on stamina

"Stamina" has been an important word in President Donald Trump's arsenal.

In 2016, then-candidate Trump repeatedly said Hillary Clinton didn't have it, sowing doubt that she was up to the job as president: "She doesn't have the stamina," Trump said during a September 2016 debate, "I said she doesn't have the stamina, and I don't believe she does have the stamina."

This cycle, Trump is implying it against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden, calling the former vice president "Sleepy Joe" and questioning his mental fitness (including Facebook attack ads citing "geriatric health&quot .

Now a new Monmouth poll shows Biden leading on the stamina question. Fifty-two percent of voters say they are very or somewhat confident that he has the mental and physical stamina necessary to carry out the job of president. That compares with 45% who are very or somewhat confident about Trump.

Anyone surprised? Joe may be older but he's clearly in better shape.
