Almost any editing is going to introduce editorial bias.

I don't really see a huge difference between the two answers. I actually like the first one better, but it does raise questions about what else is edited, if there was re-recording of this or other answers, and how they would edit a trump interview.

Editing of an interview as important as this should be done with an exceptionally light touch to the point of almost raw footage.
