Celebrities had a lot of thoughts on President Donald Trump being impeached by the House of Representatives on Wednesday night.
Trump became just the third president in the history of the United States to be impeached, with the House voting on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. He'll face trial in the Senate in 2020.
Stars like Bette Midler, Alyssa Milano, John Legend and Elizabeth Banks were among the famous faces who took to Twitter to praise the House of Representatives for their decision, with Legend going so far as to thank them "for doing your constitutional duty."
Thank you to the House of Representatives for doing your constitutional duty. Everyone please call your senators and tell them to remove this evil man from office. https://t.co/IKEPnZE84B

Younger stars weighed in on social media too, with "Riverdale" actor Cole Sprouse, former Kylie Jenner BFF Jordyn Woods and YouTube stars James Charles and Todrick Hall all sharing their thoughts on the historic impeachment with their millions of followers.

Some big names were also curious what this means for future. "Queer Eye" standout Antoni Porowski asked a genuine question about whether or not a president who has been impeached can run for office again, while "Truth Hurts" hitmaker Lizzo simply asked, "WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?"
Asking for a friend who is me: Can a president be re-elected if they were impeached?

There were also, of course, some stars who spoke out against Trump being impeached, with Kirstie Alley calling the House's vote a "dangerous precedent," "Jersey Shore" star Vinny Guadagnino expressing his dislike for Trump's potential replacement, Mike Pence, and Jon Voight sharing a video condemning the vote.
Dangerous precedent...gonna cause a major tit for tat retaliation now for whomever is in power..fasten your seatbelts, it’s gonna be a bumpy decade

People want Trump impeached but you really want Pence ? He reminds me of one of the founding fathers in the purge
