The U.K. voted on Thursday to leave the European Union, favoring a campaign driven by a groundswell of nationalist, anti-immigrant sentiments that don’t look so different from those powering Donald Trump’s campaign.

While the vote sparked a global economic panic and drove Prime Minister David Cameron to announce he would step down, it was cause for major celebration among some American conservatives.

Here are just a few of their responses:

National Review editor Rich Lowry

RedState founder Erick Erickson

Breitbart’s Milo Yiannopoulos

Ex-Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro

Heritage Foundation president Jim DeMint

Town Hall commentator Kurt Schlichter

Conservative writer John Nolte

Conservative blogger Matt Walsh

Fox News host Todd Starnes

Iowa Hawk Blog’s David Burge
