Who won the first Trump-Clinton debate? 03:25

It seems like all of America was watching the first presidential debate on Monday night, and that includes some very vocal celebrities like James Woods and Shonda Rhimes. 

Stars took to Twitter to air their grievances or express their support regarding Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. 

Woods tweeted up a storm of anti-Clinton posts, and said Saudi Arabia “owns” the candidate. He also slammed NBC. 

On Tuesday morning, Woods posted several tweets of polls showing that Trump “won” the debate. 

Actress Stacey Dash praised Trump’s “law and order” comment. 

More celebrities voiced their support for Clinton on Twitter during the debate than they did for Trump. Or rather, more stars trashed Trump than they did praise him. 

Some celebs focused on the moderator instead. Ann Coulter criticized Holt and his questions. 

Patricia Heaton was one of the celebrities who couldn’t pick a side during the debate.
