People on social media were quick to point it out.
So, last night saw the long awaited Piers Morgan interview with US President Donald Trump.
It being one of best insights we’ve had yet into the thought processes of the most powerful man in the world, naturally people decided to fixate on something entirely irrelevant on social media.

See, for reasons that are entirely his own, it seems that Trump covers his glass of water with a cover of some sort – and people didn’t really know how to respond after they’d clocked it.
. @piersmorgan, can you answer the question on everyone's lips… What's the deal with the lid on the glass of water? #TrumpMorgan

Deffo put a lid on his glass of water so he doesn't get poisoned #Trump

Why has Trump got a crumpet on top of his glass of water? #TrumpMorgan

In the interview itself, Trump admitted to Piers Morgan that he tweets from bed, does not know who Jeremy Corbyn is, and that he doesn’t consider himself a feminist.
The President of the United States also condemned the state of Brexit withdrawal talks and indicated his country’s current trading arrangement with the EU was not satisfactory.
He also said he would be conducting a state visit to the UK this year – complete with a cuppa with the Queen.

But, more importantly, let’s hope Trump let’s everyone know what is going on with that lid on Twitter soon. SAD!
