Donald Trump isn’t taking Meryl Streep‘s Golden Globes attack lying down — he’s dismissing her as a Hillary Clinton “flunky.”
Streep used her acceptance speech for the Cecile B. DeMille Award to bash the President-elect for his campaign tactics … especially his infamous run-in with a disabled reporter. The speech got a huge response in the room … and, apparently, at Trump Tower.
Trump called her, “One of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood, doesn’t know me but attacked last night at the Golden Globes. She is a Hillary flunky who lost big.”
His Twitter reply continued … “For the 100th time, I never ‘mocked’ a disabled reporter (would never do that) but simply showed him “groveling” when he totally changed a 16 year old story that he had written in order to make me look bad.”
His right hand woman, Kellyanne Conway, has also joined the fray.
