People are freaking out about Trump drinking Fiji Water mid-speech - and the water brand hasn't responded yet

• President Donald Trump awkwardly drank water during a speech on Wednesday. 
• The incident recalled one in which Trump mocked Marco Rubio for drinking from a water bottle in 2013. 
• Fiji Water did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment. 

President Donald Trump inspired an outsized reaction on Wednesday with a simple action: taking a sip of Fiji Water during a speech.

In the middle of a speech, Trump looked under the podium for water. It took him a second to find a bottle of Fiji Water, which he then opened - looking straight ahead - and took an awkward sip from. 

It was an overall awkward moment. Here's a gif of the incident: 

Social media immediately exploded in response.

Many people pointed out how similar the awkward sipping was to when Trump mocked Senator Marco Rubio for drinking from a water bottle in 2013.

Fiji Water's Wikipedia page was speedily updated with the designation of "the official thirst quencher of Donald Trump."

Others had just one question: Why wasn't the president drinking Trump Water?
