Chris Evans Is Asked If He'd Run for Political Office - See His Response

Chris Evans made an appearance on Real Time with Bill Maher to discuss his brand new political website, A Starting Point, which is billed as a civic engagement website.

At one point during the talk show, Chris was asked if he would ever run for political office, to which he responded that he doesn’t “know enough” to be able to accomplish that.

Bill then responded, “Listen, I’m not pushing you to run or not run, but I just want to disabuse you of this one thing,” he said. “I’ve spent a very long time in television talking to a lot of politicians… and you know a lot more than a lot of them do.”

He continued, “They are f**king idiots, a lot of them… There are no qualifications, and that is proven every day by the guy who is at the top of the world. He knows absolutely nothing. Don’t do it because you don’t want to do it, not because you think you know less than they do. Because they don’t have to know anything, and many of them don’t.”

If you missed it, Chris has recently been linked to a new Hollywood star!
