Yes, Reagan wore hearing aids as well. He lost most hearing in one ear as an actor when a gun went off close to his ear.
No one had to suspect that Reagan was incapable of delivering a speech.
How would one tell the difference between an IFB and hearing aids from a picture...
I used to know an old guy who wore hearing aids.
He used to wait for the bus every day at a bus stop that was right next to the tower for a local FM radio station.
His hearing aids would pick-up the signal. You’d see the guy constantly looking around for whoever it was who was speaking to him. Sad.
Bkmk
Anyone else remember when they announced Bill Clinton had been prescribed hearing aids before a debate, he wore them that night but I haven't noticed them since.
