“West Wing” star Richard Schiff is calling President Trump “dangerous,” saying the newly sworn-in commander in chief is brilliant when it comes to “turning everything around and upside-down.”

“They’ll do anything to delegitimize the press,” Schiff, who played fictional White House communications director Toby Ziegler on Aaron Sorkin’s political drama, told TMZ in a video posted Monday.

“This is his whole modus operandi,” Schiff said of Trump.

Schiff added, “He’s a genius at turning everything around and upside down and he’s very, very dangerous.”

“This guy wants to get the free press as far away from him as he can,” Schiff said, “but we’re not going to let it happen.”
