Carter? Carter Page? You Mean Jimmy Carter?

Carter Page

April 12, 2017

So the Washington Post reports today that the FBI got a FISA warrant to tap Carter Page’s phone during the campaign.

No problem for me. I don’t know who Carter Page is.

The fact that I said he was advising me on foreign policy during the campaign means squat. So now you’re going to hold Super Baby DonDon to things he said? How stupid. When I said I knew him I was speaking metaphorically. Like when the U.S. Navy said Page was an “intelligence officer,” they were being ironic.

Now, the article did say that Russian agent Victor Podobnyy called Page “an idiot” who “wants to earn lots of money,” so, clearly, he’s Super Baby DonDon’s kind of guy, but that doesn’t mean there are any flies on me.

Perhaps there’s confusion here because Page looks like a less vicious Corey Lewandowski. In fact, I thought he was Corey Lewandowski working under an assumed name.

I know Corey Lewandowski, but I don’t know Carter Page. Or Paul Manafort. Or Roger Stone. Or a person named Golden Shauer. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

For now.
