a bad apple

A person whose own words or actions negatively impacts an entire group of people. Taken from the proverb "a bad apple spoils the bunch." 

 

Jeremy is really a bad apple. After five minutes with my usually well-behaved kids, they're all acting out.

Tim and Jack are really bad apples for you.

 

If someone is a bad apple or a rotten apple, they are very dishonest or unpleasant, and they have a bad influence on the people around them. 

 

It's an opportunity for them to make clear that they are not going to tolerate a bad apple in the United States Senate.
