You’ve been a baaaaad boy, Donald Trump! Sad!
After being officially impeached by the House of Representatives on Wednesday, the easily-trolled President must now face a trial in the Senate where… they’ll most likely do absolutely nothing and Trump will continue being leader of the free world. Yuck.

But Wednesday was truly historical!
Trump is now the third President to ever be impeached in the House, joining Bill Clinton in 1997 and Andrew Johnson in 1867. (A fourth Pres, Richard Nixon, would have been impeached in 1974, but resigned before the vote.)
As to be expected, The Donald understood the magnitude of his role in this serious historical event, while gravely and solemnly respecting the patriotic duties of the brave members of the House of Representatives, and even thanking them for their public service after the vote was completed.
Juuuuuuuuuuust kidding!
He didn’t do that at all! He absolutely lost his s**t just like he always does!!!
Trump Reacts…
Instead of watching the proceedings play out on TV back in the White House, Donald opted to have one of his bizarre campaign “rallies” in Battle Creek, Michigan. During the event, the 73-year-old crowed on and on about toilets (no, really; this has become an obsession for him) while also occasionally mentioning the impeachment proceedings.
At one point, he told the crowd he was “having a good time,” and “not worried” about his future in Washington. He later added (below):
“We had 198 [votes against impeachment] to 229. We didn’t lose one Republican vote and three Democrats voted for us. The Republican party has never been so affronted, but they’ve never been so united as they are right now. Three Democrats went over to our side. That’s unheard of.”
He continued on, too, noting how the Senate trial will likely fall in his favor:
“I know the senators, and they’re great guys and women too. We have some great women, great guys. They love this country. They’re going to do the right thing. Besides, have you seen my polls in the last four weeks?”
According to a new Gallup poll, Trump’s approval rating is 45 percent. More than 50% of the country disapproves of the job he’s doing as President.
Trump also used Twitter as his vehicle of choice for this historical event, posting this creepy self-made (?) meme late Wednesday night:

Yikes…
He went back to the well early and often on Thursday, too, starting here:
I got Impeached last night without one Republican vote being cast with the Do Nothing Dems on their continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt in American history. Now the Do Nothing Party want to Do Nothing with the Articles & not deliver them to the Senate, but it’s Senate’s call!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 19, 2019
Hmmm…
And soon thereafter, he dropped this trifecta of Presidential drivel, too:
Nothin’ to worry about here, Americans!
Just another day of our now-impeached President having a totally normal one online…
Celebs React!
From Bette Midler, to James Charles, to even Jordyn Woods (!), celebs from across the entertainment spectrum had a lot to say about the Cheeto-in-Chief’s guilt. (BTW, Donald, you know how you a terrible day when even Jordyn Woods takes pity, knowing all she went through this year! LOLz!)
Here are some of the best and most enduring celeb reactions to the actual impeachment vote and aftermath, as it went down on Wednesday evening (below):

I expected this moment but I expected to be more joyful. Maybe jump up & do a happy dance. Maybe.
But I’m just sad and heartbroken. What he’s left behind can’t be erased with this vote.
The bigotry and xenophobia he’s emboldened. The lies.
It will take generations to recover.

The House of Representatives rightly carried out its constitutional responsibility by voting to impeach Donald Trump, the most corrupt president in our history. No one, including the president, is above the law.

Impeached.
— bettemidler (@BetteMidler) December 19, 2019
This President is not being Impeached because he’s a liar or immoral or a misogynist or a white nationalist or incompetent or ignorant. He’s being Impeached because he committed the High Crimes of Abuse of Power & Obstruction of Congress.

Asking for a friend who is me: Can a president be re-elected if they were impeached?

Donald Trump has abused our diplomatic relationships and undermined our national security for his own personal, political gain. By voting to impeach him, the House has taken an important step to hold him accountable. I'm ready to fulfill my constitutional duty in the Senate.

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

What about the possibility of Mike Pence replacing him as President?? WOOF!
