Former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social late Tuesday night to claim that a video montage of his gaffes that aired at a congressional hearing was manipulated by artificial intelligence.

The montage — which features clips from news outlets that include PBS, MSNBC, Fox News, Newsmax — appeared in rebuttal to special counsel Robert Hur's suggestion in his 345-page report that President Joe Biden had memory loss problems.

"The Hur Report was revealed today," Trump posted to Truth Social about 10:20 p.m. "A disaster for Biden, a two tiered standard of justice. Artificial Intelligence was used by them against me in their videos of me. Can’t do that Joe!"

In fact, Trump has a long history of verbal stumbles, slurs, and blunders, which means there would be no need to produce such moments using AI.

Trump's comments came in response to a House Judiciary Committee hearing that allowed former special counsel Robert Hur to explain his claims that Biden's memory was "significantly limited.”

"My assessment in the report about the relevance of the president's memory was necessary and accurate and fair," Hur said. "I did not sanitize my explanation."

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) teed up a video of Biden mistaking Egypt’s leader as “the president of Mexico” and becoming combative when pressed by reporters about his age.

Rep Jerry Nadler (D-NY) then introduced their own rebuttal video showcasing some of Trump's slips of tongue.

The footage spanned a variety of archived and more recent mixups by the former president speaking in public or in depositions.

The samples included Trump claiming Nikki Haley was "in charge of security" on Jan. 6 when he meant to say former Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Talking about the border, Trump said: "We have languages coming into our country. We have nobody that speaks those languages."

In other clips, Trump was if he ever remembered sitting down with former Director of the FBI James Comey or when he was married to his second wife Marla Maples — and in both cases Trump appeared to be unable to recall.

When the video of Trump ended Nadler stated: "That is a man who is incapable of avoiding criminal liability," as others around him snickered.
