Stamina

Which candidate was huffing, puffing, sweating and shifting, and which as cool as ice? Trump and I are both tall men who can stand to lose a few pounds. How did a 70-plus year old man in his condition get suckered into standing in one spot for 90 minutes? I'll give it to Dick Cheney. He was always smart enough to make sure he was always seated for debates.

insists on standing behind podiums.

I also noticed the unfairness of the set up at the Commander in Chief forum. Those plastic bar stool-height armless chairs were fine for Trump, but Hillary had to hoist herself up to sit on hers, and her legs dangled. Not cool. She was smart to hop off hers and start walking around.
