After Bernie Sanders announced he is officially suspending his campaign to be the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, many of his celebrity supporters and detractors took to Twitter to share their thoughts. 

The senator, at one point the front-runner for the nomination, announced the decision during an all-staff conference call Wednesday morning.

The news came as a shock to a lot of Hollywood celebrities, many of whom continued to support him while others had been calling on him to drop out so that the country can rally around the last remaining Democratic 2020 hopeful, former Vice President Joe Biden.
