Um you overlooked this part:

Q And I asked you, “Is astrology a theory under that definition?” And you answered, “Is astrology? It could be, yes.” Right?

A That’s correct.

Q Not, it used to be, right?

A Well, that’s what I was thinking. I was thinking of astrology when it was first proposed. I’m not thinking of tarot cards and little mind readers and so on that you might see along the highway. I was thinking of it in its historical sense

Didn’t somebody say something about cherry picking?

As you yourself posted, he was answering the "It used to be." question and confirmed that he was talking about it in its historical sense. He clearly says so above.

What part of misrepresentation don't you understand?
