The Breaking Bad actor shared his thoughts about the presidential candidate on the Nerdist podcast this week, explaining, “There’s something so refreshing about shaking up that world that is all about being handled, and here comes this loose cannon who has terrible ideas and would be a horrible president, but there’s something great about his ‘I-don’t-give-a-sh-t’ attitude that really kind of keeps others honest.”
