Carter Page sure acted like spy

... If poor, abused Carter Page wasn’t a Russian agent back when Donald Trump plucked him from obscurity to advise his 2016 campaign, he’d definitely done all he could to look like one. Among the many bizarre aspects of Rep. Devin Nunes’ incompetent and dishonest “Top Secret” memo purporting to discredit the Mueller investigation, pushing this odd bird back into the spotlight ranks near the top.

Why did Trump pick Page in the first place? Page’s publicly praising Vladimir Putin as a stronger, more decisive leader than President Obama surely had something to do with it.

Then there was Page’s longstanding opposition to economic sanctions against Russia in reaction to its armed incursions in Crimea and eastern Ukraine ...

So reliably did Carter Page parrot the Putin line during three years living in Moscow that FBI agents first interviewed him in 2013, warning that he appeared to be under recruitment as a Russian spy ...

British dossier or no dossier .. it would have been gross dereliction of duty for U.S. intelligence not to give Carter Page a long, hard look.

3. He's certainly too stupid to advise anyone on national security, but Trump picked him for that
