An observation, just a feeling, about Carter Page.

[Abu Pepe]

Based solely on the unhelpful (for himself) way he has conducted himself in what interviews I have seen, the guy seems like a really educated dude with fucking zero common sense. Maybe even slightly on the spectrum. Doesn't seem to realize how he is coming across.

[wishstar]

1. He has seemed desperate to reinforce his anti-Hillary, pro-Trump and pro-Russia sentiments

as if he is afraid he might face negative repercussions from his Russian handlers/business interests or Trump & Co. if it is suspected he is disloyal and cooperating with US investigators

2. I think he's following Roger Stone's advice.

Basically just never apologizing for anything and being as brazen as possible without any regard for the consequences.

3. yeah but when Stone does it there is a genuine in your face I dare you to get me

page seems like a guy pretending to be that.

which I guess is what you are saying

4. He thinks he's very clever, but he's in way over his head.

If I were him, I'd stop talking. And definitely stop the idiotic grinning.
