Donald Trump Interview: How & When to Watch New President Speak With David Muir [VIDEO]
ABC News anchor David Muir's interview with President Donald Trump airs Wednesday night, and there were surely be many headline-making moments.
Trump's first interview as the President of the United States is with Muir, who anchors World News Tonight. In President Trump: The First Interview, Muir will speak with the president about his various talking points, including building "the wall," illegal immigration, voter fraud and much more.
The interview is slated to air on ABC News, World News Tonight with David Muir, Nightline, ABCNews.com, ABC News Radio and ABC NewsOne tonight, and Good Morning America on Thursday.
President Trump has already gotten off to a bumpy start when it comes to public perception. Only 45 percent of Americans polled by Gallup approve of Trump's presidency in its first few days, the lowest for a new president in recorded history. The Women's March on Saturday, conducted to advocate for the protection of women's rights, was largely seen as anti-Trump and his cabinet, most of which have spotty records when it comes to social issues.
One highlight of the interview includes President Trump stating that the wall on the southern border will be paid for by Mexico, even if federal funds will be directed towards building it in the first place.
"We will be reimbursed at a later date from whatever transaction we make, from Mexico," Trump says.
After Muir points out that Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto stated that they would not in fact being paying for the wall, Trump insists they would.
"He has to say that...But I'm telling you there will be a payment...it will be in a form, perhaps a complicated form," Trump says.
It should be an interesting interview for people on both sides of the aisle. President Trump: The First Interview airs at 10 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
