Donald Trump Denounces Meryl Streep and News Media After Tough Weekend
The New York Slimes ^ | Jan. 9, 2017 | Jonathan Weisman and Maggie Haberman

“There was one performance this year that stunned me — it sank its hooks in my heart,” Ms. Streep said. “Not because it was good; there was nothing good about it. 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,” she said, referring to a speech in 2015 when Mr. Trump shuddered and flailed his arms, appearing to mock a disabled reporter at The New York Times. “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.”

Mr. Trump, in his inimitable way, spoke with Patrick Healy of The Times to respond to that attack — and then took to Twitter.

We Dodged A Bullet
Cancel your newspaper and premium cable subscriptions.
Don’t go to their movies and pay $20 for drinks and popcorn.
Don’t buy products they endorse.
The only thing they understand is wealth and fame.
The whining about Trump is all an act.

We’ve got 11 days until they begin their 23/7 BS attempts, with MSM drumbeat, to impeach Trump. Then we have four years to turn things around to save America from these socialists.
Huck Follywood!

At least, when President Donald John Trump sits in THAT
SAME CHAIR that Hillary Clinton’s HUSBAND sat while being
given ORAL SEX by a young office worker under his authority;
TRUMP will not be likely to be getting ORAL SEX from the
office workers. - Disgusting to think that Hillary even
WANTED to be in that particular position. Warped.

Let her vent. But, in 8 years she will look awfully stupid.

One of the things I like most about Trump is he fights back.

I agree. But in this case, I think he should have fought back differently. If he'd tweeted something like, "I wish Meryl Streep a nice life", and left it at that, the libs wouldn't know what to do with it.

Instead, his response just gave the lefties what they want, and so he and the rest of us can expect more of the same from them to get it.

I worked at a studio in the mid 70’s. 1/3rd were gay then, and now it must be closer to one half.

I figured that. I bet you have some whopper stories!!!
I am always blown away at all their devoted fans who faint or scream at their sight. I could never figure that out even as a teenage girl.

I have never been impressed with celebrities, and that served me well when I worked at the WB studio : )

Yep. I bet it did serve you well with all those prima donnas and just plain mental cases. Having worked in the business I have a question...I watched a LOT of Hallmark over the holidays and I noticed that some of the “actresses” especially, had sort of a Valley Girl speech (sort of child like) and they spoke so rapidly I couldn’t follow what they were saying at the time. In the day, I thought all took diction lessons? No?

PS Many Hollywood actresses actually grew up in the San Fernando Valley, so indeed they ARE “Valley Girls”
