The section specifically "allows the government to obtain the communications of foreigners outside the United States, including foreign terrorist threats."
In a fact sheet, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence says there are strict guidelines on the use of 702, which "cannot be used to intentionally target any US citizen, or any other US person, or to intentionally target any person known to be in the United States. Section 702 cannot be used to target a person outside the United States if the purpose is to acquire information" from a person inside the United States.
Last I checked Carter Page was not a 'foreigner outside the United States'
