Donald Trump made it official Tuesday: Despite being impeached twice, whipping up false claims of a stolen 2020 presidential election, and being the subject of various, ongoing investigations, including a Congressional probe into what role he played in inciting a deadly insurrection on the U.S. Capitol, he’s ready for another run for the presidency.

And here in Massachusetts, some of the former president’s most prominent critics say they’re ready, too.

“We’ve defeated him before,” tweeted U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren. “We’ll defeat him again.”

Members of the Bay State’s entirely Democratic Congressional delegation were quick to assert any attempt by Trump to win back his former seat in the Oval Office will be unsuccessful.

U.S. Rep. Jim McGovern: ‘Bring it on.’
