EXCLUSIVE: 'Throw him out of MY building.' Trump's former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski tells how the rivalry between him and John Kelly exploded when the White House chief of staff threw him against a wall outside the Oval Office in new book
Corey Lewandowski and John Kelly nearly came to blows outside the Oval Office in February 2018
The details are revealed by Lewandowski and David Bossie, Trump's deputy campaign manager in 2016, in their new book Trump: America First
Lewandowski claims that 'gate-keeper' Kelly was annoyed by his close relationship with President Trump and restricted his access to the White House
'From now on, if you want to come into the White House, you have to call me first,' Kelly told Lewandowski in an exasperated tone
Lewandowski said they both had the same goal: making sure the president is successful. 'Don't kid yourself,' Kelly said, 'My goal is to save my country'
Kelly became more enraged when Trump defended Lewandowski while they were all inside the Oval Office on February 21, 2018
The chief of staff said of Lewandowski: 'When he gets out of there, throw him out of my f**king building'
When Lewandowski countered, tension exploded and Kelly came running and grabbed Lewandowski and pushed him up against the Oval Office's outside wall
Lewandowski offered to 'go outside' or go inside Hope Hicks' unoccupied office
It was in there, that Lewandowski brought up Rob Porter to Kelly
Porter, who was dating Hicks, would eventually resign from his position as White House Staff Secretary after DailyMail.com revealed accusations of domestic violence from his two ex wives
