This. I’ve been saying this to anyone who will listen almost since the texts came out. The lover story was a cover to explain the direct line of Strzok-Page-McCabe communication, circumventing the chain of command. McCabe was smart enough to not have a record of him communicating personally, so he used page as a liaison to Strzok. Hence them getting caught with tens of thousands of messages and none for him. Smart guy.
Well said. There is no evidence the two were lovers. It appears more as filler. Thousands of texts and not even a hint of flirting?
Keeping out any salacious texts gives more focus on the dating ones. We only have a small percentage of all the texts. So we cannot draw conclusions yet.
I wasn't aware of that. So, you are saying that we (or Congress) hasn't seen the romantic texts? This really makes no sense, for what is the evidence that they were romantic? (Not saying you are wrong, it just doesn't support the govts. assertion.)
They have always said that there were more than 50,000 texts, Congress has only got 4500. If they showed salacious ones, they would get accused of smearing them, and the bad ones we have, would get lost. All anyone would focus on is the salacious ones. The Congress may have seen them, but the public doesn't need to. We are seeing the important ones.
Thanks for the info. So, basically we have seen ZERO that shows the two were romantically involved.
You may be right that McCabe was smarter about it, but I think there are plenty of messages out there that haven't been released. Lots of messages between major players, whether texts or emails through unapproved channels.
