1. Trump will never subject himself to foreign journalists.

They'll call him and his surrogates out and expose him.

2. I don't quite get your "foreign journalist" connection?

4. Clarification

A journalist representing the BBC would ask penetrating questions with follow-up and call out non-answers to questions.

A journalist from a media outlet owned by an American corporation would accept without question whatever Trump or a surrogate says.

3. Unfortunately, whatever may have been the case in 1954...

... the answer to Joseph Welch's question, in too many cases (and certainly in Mr Trump's), is "Not a shred, sir." And apparently, this is not enough to disturb the even tenor of most people's lives.

"Have you no shame" Murrow moment.

Still waiting.
