I'm going to speculate about Trump's visit to Walter Reed yesterday [View all]

and I'm going to guess that he heard the Supreme Court is going to decline to hear the case about releasing his taxes and it gave him a panic attack.

Anybody else want to play this game?

The assumption is the official press release story is false.
