President Donald Trump\u2019s attempts to avoid showing signs of aging have been an ongoing battle since his return to office. <\/p>\n

However, the reality show facade has repeatedly slipped thanks to his bruised hands, swollen ankles, and increasing tendency to wander off\u2014just like Joe Biden used to.<\/p>\n

\n

But since returning to office, there\u2019s been another telltale sign the Daily Beast has frequently observed in public that shows Trump\u2019s 80 years: his difficulty hearing. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In their new book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,<\/i> New York Times correspondents Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan wrote, \u201cHe was also having trouble hearing, asking people to repeat questions they had just asked.\u201d <\/p>\n

They reported that joint press conferences with world leaders \u201cwere more often held in the Oval Office than in the East Room, in part because the acoustics were better, and he didn\u2019t have to stand for an hour.\u201d<\/p>\n

But that has not prevented the president from straining to hear what is said or publicly requesting a line be repeated since returning to office. <\/p>\n

While the memo from the president\u2019s most recent physical from the White House physician stated \u201cHearing is intact,\u201d at times, Trump has looked around in confusion or even responded with something completely unrelated based on what he thought was said. <\/p>\n

In September, Trump was answering a reporter\u2019s question during a White House dinner while seated next to first lady Melania Trump when he was asked about speaking with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The president turned to his wife to ask, \u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n

The first lady could be seen leaning in to Trump as she repeated the question in his ear, \u201cIf you will speak with President Putin in the near future?\u201d so he could respond.<\/p>\n

In one awkward exchange last November, the president misheard NBC News reporter Garrett Haake, who said it sounded like there was a \u201cfollow-up there\u201d while questioning Trump in the Oval Office. <\/p>\n

The president asked him to repeat himself before admitting he didn\u2019t hear the words \u201cfollow-up\u201dand \u201cI thought you said there was a polyp.\u201d <\/p>\n

In October, at a White House roundtable on ANTIFA, the president could be seen raising his hand as if gesturing for a reporter to speak louder. After calling on another reporter who did not speak as loudly, the president gestured toward his ear as if he could not hear and moved on to call on another reporter, while then-Attorney General Pam Bondi, seated next to him, looked on. <\/p>\n

On another occasion last July, the president struggled with the words \u201cburn bag\u201d and made the reporter repeat it before joking he thought she said something about appointing a man named \u201cburn bag.\u201d <\/p>\n

When a Fox News reporter, Danamarie McNichol, asked him about detainees spending time in Florida last summer, he first asked her to repeat the question, but then still misheard and went on to talk about how much time he would be spending in his home state.<\/p>\n

The Daily Beast asked the White House if the president has received any recommendation from his physician to use hearing aids since his return to the White House and received a Biden-bashing statement in response that did not address the question.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s sharpness, unmatched energy, and historic accessibility stand in stark contrast to what we saw during the last administration when Democrats and the legacy media intentionally covered up Joe Biden\u2019s serious mental and physical decline from the American people,\u201d said spokesman Davis Ingle. \u201cPresident Trump is the sharpest and most accessible President in American history who is working nonstop to solve problems and deliver on his promises.\u201d <\/p>\n

At other times, the president has also said he cannot understand reporters due to their accents. <\/p>\n

At his press conference wrapping up the G7 summit last week, Trump misheard a Japanese reporter\u2019s question in English, where he thought he said \u201cair force\u201d when he was asking about \u201cmilitary force.\u201d <\/p>\n

The president turned to Secretary of State Marco Rubio to clarify, and the top diplomat could be heard quickly in Trump\u2019s ear, asking, \u201cHave you asked any country to send military force?\u201d The president at the event also had an American reporter repeat what he said. <\/p>\n

There was also a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last February, when Trump praised a reporter from Afghanistan\u2019s \u201cbeautiful accent\u201d but said \u201cI can\u2019t understand a word you\u2019re saying.\u201d <\/p>\n

In October, he asked a French reporter questioning him about the Israeli vote to annex the West Bank if she could \u201csay that louder please\u201d as he leaned in. <\/p>\n

After she repeated herself, he turned to the official next to him to answer it.<\/p>\n

But Trump was not as tolerant at a press conference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi last year, when he immediately cut off a reporter seconds after he began to speak.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI can\u2019t understand a word he\u2019s saying,\u201d Trump said, before moving on to call on another reporter.\u201cIt\u2019s the accent\u201d <\/p>\n
