Former CIA counterterrorism officer and ex-House Republican Conference policy director Evan McMullin formally announced his candidacy for president Wednesday night in Utah. McMullin's longshot bid is the latest hope, albeit a far-fetched one, by anti-Trump conservatives to prop up a Republican alternative in the 2016 election. Read more: www.politico.com...

Will this restore any Credibility for the GOP after Trump has almost destroyed the party?

To little to late for the Republicans to mount an effective campaign and how will the Trump supporters react to this
late comer upstart after all these months of support for Donald Trump?

This presidential race will go down in the history books!! Trump has immortalized himself in history!

FYI..There's discussion of Evan McMullin ongoing here: www.abovetopsecret.com...

Guys jumping in like this is why people are voting for Trump. It really makes it look like the system is rigged for an elitist class, That their is corruption everywhere in politics. The establishment is scared that Trump will tear it all down to the ground.

This is what the anti-Trump civilian population is missing. The more the establishment pours it on, the more it enforces the Trump is for US, unlike Hillary, who wants you to be with her. Be with her, as she sells out to the highest bidder; be with her, as she ignores the laws and stay out of jail; be with her, so on and so on....

According to Trump supporters EVERY thing that happens to Trump is a sign that the system is rigged for the elite class. At no points is there ever any accountability from your side. It's always someone else's fault. Y'all just can't accept that Trump isn't as likeable as you like to believe he is.

I wonder if the anti-Clinton Saunders supporters will jump on board and support this guy. Or maybe it's time for the Democratic party to come out with an alternative to Hillary?

He looks like an ex-CIA assassin for Goldman Sachs...

Oh wait...

He just has more money to be made under Clinton. That's the only thing he can accomplish is taking votes from trump guaranteeing Clinton victory.

Bring it on. I've been taking it for over a year now. I think I can take it for the last 3 months. Though it feels more half-hearted these days. I guess it's getting hard for them to defend his slinking numbers. The die-hards still make me proud though.

I mean, really, if the Never Trumps were serious about winning, they wouldn't pick a no-name-recognition former CIA/former Goldman Sachs employee.

But if running a political psy op - perfect!

Typically in ATS we would all bash this guy; ex-cia and goldman sachs(which he later deleted off his fb profile). times a changing.

Just a toy soldier for the bankers. Bankers and country club republicans are willing to put up a guy who is exactly like them. Hopefully we can all rejoice together someday in hating this guy.

Trump didn't destroy the GOP.
They did that on their own by giving the people un-electable candidates to chose from for years...
Except Ron Paul.

Could care less if he did actually destroyed a corrupt defunct political party. At least it can now be rebuilt. What are the democrats working with? Do you honestly think it is much better? Their corruption is continuing unchecked...

I support him because he clearly believes in the private sector more than the public sector. People need to stop relying on the government! Learn to live within their means and depend on their neighbor.
