"This is where Britain's greatest leader fought the war, and he used to wear these famous hats from the hat maker Lock. We've had one made for you," Morgan said as he handed Trump the hat which was monogrammed with his initials, DJT.

"Piers, I never knew you had that kind of sensibility," Trump joked.
