Carter Page: “Jake, that’s – it’s really spin. I mean, I sat in on some meetings. But, you know, to call me an adviser, I think, is way over the top.”

Tapper: “Except, in a 2013 letter, you wrote that – it says – quote – ‘Over the past half-year, I have had the privilege to serve as an informal adviser to the staff of the Kremlin in preparation for the presidency of the G20 next month, where energy issues will be a prominent point on the agenda.’ That’s August 2013. That’s yourself calling yourself an informal adviser to the Kremlin.”

Page: “You know, informal, having some conversations with people.”
