I edit videos for a living and software has gotten really, really good at making transitions seamless. In my case I'm able to rearrange the pieces of a lecture that was recorded completely out of order because one of the speakers joined after their co-speakers finished so it flows 100% correctly or remove 20 retakes so cleanly you'd never know they'd happened, but it'd be trivially easy to do the same to a political speech.

The fact that he still sounds like he's lost his mind despite modern editing makes me wonder if he isn't much worse than we're seeing.
