The U.S. has a history of knee jerk reactions to various perceived threats, I can see a republican Trump like candidate realizing that the country is terrified and looking for a simple solution and realizing he can ride that wave to the White House, I'm not saying that it will happen any time soon, but it will be utterly unpredictable when it does happen.
