Senator Elizabeth Warren made it official on Saturday: She’s running for president to change a country she says is “rigged by the wealthy.” She quickly drew the attention of President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign.

The Massachusetts Democrat announced during a speech in Lawrence, a former manufacturing hub and symbol of the U.S. labor movement in her home state, that she’s seeking her party’s nomination to challenge Trump in 2020.
