West Wing's Toby: Trump is beyond fiction
Donald Trump is βso absurdβ, Aaron Sorkin wouldn't have been able to write it and have anyone believe it, says West Wing actor Richard Schiff.
Schiff, who played Toby in the hit NBC show, said Trump is βso out of the realm of our fictional worldβ that any attempt to write such a character would've been "laughed off the network."
He said: "Of the two candidates there's only one who reflects upon the ideals of The West Wing and that's Hillary Clinton."
Richard Schiff has been campaigning for Hillary Clinton in the US Presidential Election 2016.
