'My heart drops to my stomach when I realize he has tweeted about me again,' said Lisa Page. 'The president of the United States is calling me names to the entire world. He’s demeaning me and my career.'

Photo: Mark Wilson/Getty Images In mid-2017, former FBI lawyer Lisa Page became a convenient target of Donald Trump’s relentless hostility, after anti-Trump texts she’d exchanged were made public. The texts, between Page and former FBI agent Peter Strzok, with whom she was having an extramarital affair, became a years-long fixation for Trump; he repeatedly attacked both Page and Strzok on Twitter, often mockingly referring to them as “lovers.
Although Page agreed to a closed-door interview with lawmakers about her texts last summer, her interview with the Daily Beast, published last night, is her first since she became a recurring figure in the president’s unhinged tweetstorms. But just because she’s kept quiet doesn’t mean Trump’s belittling comments haven’t gotten under her skin — instead, the attacks are so crushing, she says she has struggled to find the words to describe them.
Before Trump put a target on her back, Page wasn’t used to this type of attention. Though she worked on both the Hillary Clinton email case and the investigation into the Trump campaign’s potential collusion with Russia, Page told the Beast that “not a person outside of my small legal community” knew who she was throughout the majority of her FBI career.
