President Donald Trump prides himself on being a master of suspense, conspiracy theory, counter-attack and self-promotion.But when it came time to end the six-week long mystery about whether or not he recorded “tapes” of his conversations with former FBI director James Comey in the Oval Office — the day before a House Intelligence Committee deadline to produce any such tapes — the president deflated the balloon in a very non-Trumpian way.There was no drawn-out press conference in the lobby of the Trump Hotel, for instance, like the one he staged during his presidential campaign to announce he was finally dropping his false, five-year-long conspiracy theory about President Barack Obama’s birthplace.Neither was there any stoking the coals of news to come, keeping the guessing game going, as he has done with other much-anticipated White House announcements.
