1. Of course!

Why wouldn't it?

2. There was some talk that the receipt could have been staged

Due to the two hours elapsing between the first tweet and the second Bitcoin activity.

Claude Taylor kept tweet-teasing he had evidence to prove it real. Was waiting for the hacker community to verify...

And then this tweet ~

What I can't figure is if there were sooooo many with all these questionable Russian activities, how did they possibly think that it wouldn't come to light? How did they imagine they'd keep a lid on it all for four maybe eight years....unbelievable ~

3. It would be hilarious if Sean Spicer was some deep seated mole along the lines of Deep Throat.

However, it's far more likely he's just a mole along the lines of a subterranean rodent.

Or a mole along the lines of an unwanted cluster of skin cells.

4. The Bitsig record was generated hours after the Spicy tweet though.

I'm not saying it's nothing, I'm not saying it's something, I'm saying... grains of salt folks.

Here's a link ostensibly debunking the original Mensch article:

8. Read the linked article, folks

The author has anti-Trump credentials, but for doing minimal due diligence he will probably now be labelled a Putin asset. If you follow Louise Mensch you will sooner or later find yourself on the highway to Stupidtown.

9. My understanding is that Bouzy's post presents the POSSIBILITY

that the bitsig record was a planted forgery, a prank. The two hours elapsing between Spicer's tweet and the bitsig record presents the opportunity for that to be the case.

Claude Taylor's tweet came after he took the information in, researched further to source it and then tweeted his findings.

He's not a tinfoil hatter, he's got some gravitas to back him up.

Believe it, don't believe it....but notice the way people are being moved out and around this administration the louder the twitter verse answers back.

But yes, decide for yourself. There could be no there there. Chaffetz really did leave politics because of a 12 year old injury.

7. Is this considered real or fake?

[SticksnStones]

11. Take a look at my reply #9 in this thread

Could very well be true...
