Leaked transcripts from a closed-door fundraiser reveal former president Bill Clinton privately agreeing with one of Republican nominee Donald Trump’s major campaign themes: the political system is rigged against working class Americans.

Clinton also appeared to tell the audience of Democratic donors that Hillary Clinton “deserves” to be elected president.

Clinton’s comments took place at an October 2015 private fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in Cheseapeake, Maryland.

The transcript of Clinton’s remarks was published by WikiLeaks alongside thousands of emails sent and received by Clinton campaign chair John Podesta.

In the speech, Clinton admitted that “there are lots of people in the Democratic Party and lots of working people all over the world who are sick and tired of working their heart out and never getting a pay raise.”

Clinton then conceded that, “to some extent,” the political system is rigged against the working class. (RELATED: For-Profit University Cashed In On Access To Clinton Insiders While Paying Bill Millions)

“I want to vote for whoever I think will make the most difference, and that’s what you have to talk to people about. If the issue is who will make the most difference, it’s not a close question.” (RELATED: Bill Clinton Mocked Working Class Voters At Private Fundraiser)

“Whether in office or out of office, she has consistently gotten the job done in an honorable way,” the transcript reads. “She deserves this (inaudible). And she will not disappoint you. But to get there, we have to not disappoint her.”
