On Wednesday, the House voted to impeach President Donald Trump, making him the first president in US history to be impeached twice. Celebrities from both sides of the aisle took to Twitter to share their take on the historic news.
Chrissy Teigen
I didn’t even know you could be impeached twice. I thought it was like dying

Sophia Bush
Thank you @RepSpeier, and all of your colleagues who likewise voted for accountability. It matters. Democracy is worth it. Our republic is worth it. https://t.co/WV8VPmih39

The primary reason they are going down this path is because they are terrified ofTrump, not because of what happened last week. No, they are terrified of Donald Trump because Donald Trump still has millions and millions of supporters who want to see him run again

Ten republicans stood up to vote to impeach the President, making this a bipartisan vote. That took guts, took courage, took inner fortitude. We can all ask ourselves what we would have done today. We can all ask ourselves how we want to move forward in thoughts, words, & deeds.

Jonathan Van Ness
There is legal precedence to impeaching high ranking officials after they’re gone from office. Also, John Adam’s an original framer of the constitution famously said, I can be impeached until the day I die. So there can be and will be a Senate trial where Trump will be convicted

Leslie Odom Jr.
And for the record, anyone who listened to that recording of his conversation with the Georgia Secretary of State knows, that FIRST impeachment was warranted too. His modus operandi was laid bare. Threats, quid pro quo, bullying—he’s been doing it for years.
