Hollywood celebrities have been quite vocal about their apparent dislike for Donald Trump and even now, as he was sworn in as America's 45th president in Washington, D.C., on Friday, stars were quick to issue their take on the inauguration.

Voicing their dissent on social media, they wrote:

Chris Rock: Don't Forget to Set Your Clocks Back 300 Years

Olivia Wilde: Stop telling me to "get over it". Get UNDER it. He works for US. The democratic process is constant. Stay informed, stay engaged, speak up.

Ellie Goulding: Love you Obamas

Chelsea Handler: Once or twice in every generation a line is crossed so egregiously that where you stood on the issue will forever define you. -Kara Vallow

Zoe Saldana: I'm trying to be a respectful diligent American rt now but as I start to watch this inauguration- Regression is the word that comes to mind.

John Legend: The last 2 inaugurations were very crowded. This one is so... roomy

Andy Cohen: Were only white people allowed to the Washington Mall

Trump's on-and-off-again relationship with Hollywood has been strained ever since he announced his candidacy for the presidency in 2015.
