Why not just report what he says. He's an idiot and that is on display every time he talks without a teleprompter.

Probably because that would be too painful a thing to admit to their readers, both in the U.S. and abroad. It would be an embarrassment to admit outright that we have elected a blithering idiot to the highest office in the land.

That said, I would really like to see a NYT and WaPo headline that read "President Trump's Insane Rant About Hydraulics Raises Alarms Among Psychopathologists".
