Anti-Trump Senator Gillibrand launches presidential bid

Democratic US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, an outspoken Donald Trump critic and champion of women's issues including the #MeToo movement, announced Tuesday she is running for president. Nearly 22 months before the 2020 election, the battle for the White House is already firming up, as Americans begin to assess who might be the opposition party nominee to challenge Trump. "I'm going to run for president of the United States, because as a young mom I'm going to fight for other people's kids as hard as I would fight for my own -- which is why I believe that health care should be a right and not a privilege," the senator told Stephen Colbert on his CBS television late night talk show.
