"I saw him put a note in his mouth," she writes in her book. "Since Trump was ever the germaphobe, I was shocked he appeared to be chewing and swallowing the paper. It must have been something very, very sensitive."
The Washington Post, which published excerpts from Omarosa's book, further noted that the White House did not confirm this information. According to the media, "several White House aides laughed at the assertion and said it was not true."
