It didn't take long for Donald Trump to respond to Meryl Streep's pointed monologue about the president-elect's comments and campaign conduct -- notably his ridiculing of a disabled New York Times reporter in 2015.

Streep, who was honored with a lifetime award at Sunday night's Golden Globes ceremony, used her acceptance speech to lambaste Trump, without mentioning him by name.

"There was one performance this year that stunned me -- it sank its hooks in my heart, not because it was good -- there was nothing good about it," Streep said. "But it was effective and it did its job. It made its intended audience laugh, and show their teeth. It was that moment when the person asking to sit in the most respected seat in our country imitated a disabled reporter."

Trump responded in a tweet, saying: "Meryl Streep, one of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood, doesn't know me but attacked last night at the Golden Globes. She is a....."

He also called the New York Times after the Golden Globes broadcast and told editor Patrick Healy, "People keep saying I intended to mock the reporter's disability, as if Meryl Streep and others could read my mind, and I did no such thing."
