Bonus: "I Was Surprised He Said It Out Loud"

In this special bonus episode of "The Investigation," ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos speaks with co-host Chris Vlasto about his exclusive sit down interview with President Trump. Stephanopoulos, who spent two days with the President, even traveling to Iowa on Air Force One, takes us behind the scenes of his explosive interview -- Trump telling Stephanopoulos, if a foreign government approached him with information on a political opponent, "there's nothing wrong with listening." Then, senior investigative producer John Santucci, who spent over a year securing this exclusive interview, joins the conversation and teases ahead to the big primetime special coming up on the ABC network.
