david shulkin is the former veterans affairs secretary under president trump.'s joining us right now on the phone. mr. secretary, when you look at how this outbreak was handled, what message does it send to the sailors and marines aboard this aircraft carrier? >> well, i think it's most important to our men and women who serve that they know that they have officers that are looking out for their best interests. and we saw with the captain that was dismissed that he was looking out for their interests and he knew he needed to get help. and we want our officers to be able to stand up and do what's right. because watching men and women get sick like this, they can't do their job, they can't protect their country and we have to keep them healthy and well to be able to defend the country. >> yeah, the president ridiculed the captain of the theodore roosevelt because he wrote letters complaining, the letters were leaked and the president said he's writing letters, who does he think he is, ernest hemingway. that was pretty awful when we heard the president spe about t
