Donald Trump's former surgeon general sounded the alarm on Sunday about Robert F. Kennedy's role in the administration.
Former United States Surgeon General Jerome Adams, who was appointed by the president during his first term in office, appeared on MSNBC on Sunday to talk about Kennedy's recent purge at the CDC.
As for Adams, he said he was "deeply alarmed" by Kennedy's leadership, as well as what Adams sees as a "stunning collapse of leadership and credibility."
"These aren't just one offs," Adams added. "They are consistent and dangerous patterns of leadership failure under RFK."
