In an interview with ATTN:'s Editor in Chief Matthew Segal, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said there's one thing she thinks President Donald Trump is right on: The system is rigged. They differ of course on what that system is — and how to fix it.

"He did say 'the system is rigged,' many times during his campaign — " Segal stated.

"No kidding!" Warren responded.

"And he said he was qualified to un-rig it," Segal continued. "Why did people gravitate toward that message?" 

"You know, because the half of the sentence is right: The system is rigged," Warren explained. "The problem is, it is rigged in favor of people just like Donald Trump."

Trump largely made this repeated claim about our political systems; ABC News has a list of things he claimed were "rigged" during the campaign. The system Warren is referring to is our financial system.

Long before becoming an icon for the progressive movement, and a symbol for strong and persistent women, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was advocating on behalf of consumers. Prior to her election to the U.S. Senate, Warren was the Chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), with the goal of holding Wall Street accountable after the 2008 financial crisis. She also helped establish the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau under the Obama administration.

On this week's "Got Your Attention," in addition to our roundtable game, we'll hear the full interview between Segal and Sen. Warren, recorded in Washington, D.C. last month. Warren discusses how she thinks President Donald Trump will ultimately hurt consumers and not "drain the swamp" as he promised. Warren believes strongly that Trump's financial policies will only rig it further against consumers rather than help them.
