After Meryl Streep's barnstorming speech at the Golden Globes, in which she criticised Donald Trump without mentioning his name, everyone has been waiting for the almost inevitable tweetstorm.
While we anticipate a 140-character hot take from the president-elect is still to come, the New York Timeshas landed a short but revealing interview with Trump, getting his response to the actress' remarks.
SEE ALSO:Meryl Streep is the moral compass the world needs nowCalling her "a Hillary lover," the former reality TV star added he was "not surprised" he had been criticised by "liberal movie people." He claimed to have not watched the award ceremony.
Meryl Streep received the Golden Globes' Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award Sunday, but it was her call to resist the ugliness of Trump's acts and rhetoric that won her praise on the night.
"It was that moment when the person asking 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," she said.
"It kind of broke my heart when I saw it. And I still can't get it out of my head because it wasn't in a movie, it was real life."
She called for the Hollywood community to support the press in the years ahead, particularly the Committee to Protect Journalists, saying "We need the principled press to hold power to account, to call them on the carpet for every outrage."
Meryl Streep was a supporter of Hillary Clinton for president, also appearing in an October video that condemned Trump for his remarks about women.
