Why do movie trailers do that weird dialogue splicing thing?

I mean when there's two clearly separate lines of dialogue, and they splice them together so it sounds like the person is saying something different.

Why not just have the actor say the line they want specifically for the trailer instead of frankenstein-ing it together from pre-existing lines? It sounds terrible for the most part.

I've been trying to find answers for this but nobody seems to have one.
