Los Angeles, January 9 (RHC)-- U.S. actress Meryl Streep won the Lifetime Achievement Award at Sunday night’s Golden Globes.  The Academy Award-winning actress used her speech to call for protections for the free press and to criticize President-elect Donald Trump, without ever saying his name, saying the performance that most stunned her this year was Trump’s mocking imitation of a disabled reporter during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Meryl Streep said that "this instinct to humiliate, when it’s modeled by someone in the public platform, by someone powerful, it filters down into everybody’s life, because it kind of gives permission for other people to do the same thing.  Disrespect invites disrespect.  Violence incites violence.  When the powerful use their position to bully others, we all lose."

This morning, President-elect Donald Trump slammed Streep, tweeting: "Meryl Streep, one of the most overrated actresses in Hollywood, doesn’t know me but attacked last night at the Golden Globes.  She is a Hillary flunky who lost big."
