I don’t follow this...
There is really only one credible explanation for this Carter Page was hired to create something that was used as justification to provide legal cover for what was a highly illegal surveillance program against the opposition candidate of a sitting President of the United States. James Comey attempted to explain this all away by basically saying, We believed Carter Page because Carter Page assured us he was believable. And please dont forget that through all of this,
Carter Page was hired by the FBI to be an informant against Russia.
In 2013 Carter Page was working as an under-cover employee (UCE) of the FBI, helping them to build a case against Evgeny Buryakov. In March 2016 Carter Page remained their informant pre-trial.
Basically, Page was used to plant listening devices on this Russian, but was thrown under the bus for the purposes of the Mueller investigation....because Page was in contact with the Russians.
Research this folks.
