That would be an incredibly humorous-and stupid reaction to this silly and obvious bluff attempt.

True, but it wouldn't need to be someone coming clean entirely. Think along the lines of Elon and the masseuse/horse scandal - he gets asked about it by a journalist, then panics and goes onto twitter talking weirdly about how he's suddenly a republican and that he because of this he expects to be on the receiving end of fabricated hit-pieces. To many of us it's pretty clear how that went down, but people do dumb stuff sometimes to cover their tracks when they're caught and think they can get away with it :)

I dunno, I'm just guessing. The more likely thing is that it's just someone trolling, IMO
