The Mar-a-Lago raid undermines the United States’ credibility in international politics and can be exploited by China, according to Bradley A. Thayer, the director of China policy at the Center for Security Policy and co-author of the book “Understanding the China Threat.“
He called the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s Florida home a violation of American political culture and principles, saying that such a move “is welcomed by our adversaries, and which is certainly a negative event for our allies and for the credibility of the United States.”
