Transcriptions of Trump routinely omit all manner of stupid asides & repetitions of ugly statements. It's normal to clean up a public event transcript a bit, but w/ Trump we get basically a ghost-written version of his every public statement. In the media it's Trump "as told by" reporter Q for NYT.
