apparently not too big for a tweet storm. today donald trump responded. more from cnn s jeff zeleny. reporter: at the golden globe awards, meryl streep tore into donald trump without saying his name. it was that moment when the person asked to sit in the most respected seat in our country imitated a disabled reporter, someone he outranked in privilege, power and the capacity to fight back, it kind of broke my heart when i saw it, and i still can t get it out of my hid, because it wasn t in a movie. it was real life. reporter: before sunrise, trump responded on twitter. merriyl streep is one of the mo overrated actresses. she is a hillary flunky who lost big. for the 100th time, i never mocked a disabled reporter.

merriyl streep and julia robert. you play julia roberts husband. was it difficult? i know you re actually the more sympathetic one in the film, but was it difficult to agree to be cheating on america s sweetheart? well, that was the writing. it wasn t my choice. tell us about meryl streep. she s obviously getting a lot of attention and notice for the film. was it really her starring role. what was it like watching her in this element? yeah. it s a wonderful opportunity to see her acting up close and personal. it s really she s she is
