"There's something so refreshing about shaking up that world that is all about being handled," Cranston said, adding, "and here comes this loose cannon who has terrible ideas and would be a horrible president, but there's something great about his...attitude that really kind of keeps others honest. I think it's a surprise benefit to the country, actually." Listen to Cranston's full take on Trump's run at the 1:16:00 mark.

Cranston will soon appear in HBO's ALL THE WAY, directed by Jay Roach and written by Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Schenkkan, and in the film TRUMBO as blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo.
