Nobody. The Republican Establishment will simply go back to its old cheap labor, environmentally-ravaging, tax-cuts-for the rich agenda that creates great profits for elites and misery for everyone else.  The anti-intellectualism will remain.
I don't think the Democrats economic policies are that great either. Great Profits for elites-Yeah under Obama(a Democrat President) the elites are making lots of money.

Cheap Labor-Why as a Democrat would you complain about that? Obama won people that made 50K and under I believe in 2012.

I don't know Steve King of Iowa could do it but I don't think he wants to run for President. He already said Mexicans on the US/Mexico border are drug dealers. I don't think he is protectionist like Trump is though. He is for ethonal subsidies because of the district he represents amd Iowa as a whole is relying heavily on ethonal subsidies.

Tom Cotton could try get a more mainstream and conservative version of it.

Doubt Pence can fit, he's a balance to the ticket, more conservative and establishment.

Out of curiosity--do you think that Tom Cotton can appeal to large numbers of White, blue-collar voters in Midwestern U.S. states such as Ohio and Pennsylvania?

Well, let me say this--I think that, at the very least, one can say that Pence is more closely associated with the Religious Right than a Trump-like populist should probably be.

If those voters want to get on board with, ya know, actual conservatism.

What's the likelihood that those voters actually want to get on board with this, though? Completely serious question, for the record.

I cannot conceive of any scenario where anyone would want to recreate that nightmare.

There is a big difference between populism, which I very much support, and a downright hateful and unrealistic campaign.

Yes, which in turn is why exactly I am talking about copying Trump's populism but without Trump's bigotry, racism, xenophobia, et cetera.

In that case, Cruz, the conservative populist hero.
