Hawley's a pretty meh candidate in his own right. Where he excels is that he's one of the few Republicans to understand that unrestrained capitalism has failed and that you need to actually offer economic concessions to the working-class beyond general race-baiting, and that winning over those kind of voters is the only way the party remains relevant medium-term. Trump also understood this in 2016 but was too lazy/didn't care enough to follow through when actually President.
