There is always a chance that Trump will prove to be a "Trojan horse" from the right's perspective. There would have been absolutely no chance of either Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio being such a thing.
And apparently the "liberal" Atlantic agrees:
The Dangerous Myth That Hillary Clinton Ignored the Working Class
I'll cherry pick the most relevant part for you:
Trump’s white voters do support the mommy state, but only so long as it’s mothering them. Most of them don’t seem eager to change Medicare or Social Security, but they’re fine with repealing Obamacare and its more diverse pool of 20 million insured people. They’re happy for the government to pick winners and losers, so long as beleaguered coal and manufacturing companies are in the winner’s circle. Massive deficit-financed spending on infrastructure? Under Obama, that was dangerous government overreach, but under Trump, it’s a jobs plan by a guy they know won’t let Muslims and Mexicans cut in line to get work renovating highways and airports.
So Trump voters and Democratic voters can argue over who killed Social Darwinism in America - but the bottom line is that Social Darwinism in America is still dead.
"These, and many other matters which might be noticed, add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation" - Justice David Brewer, Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892
