In both cases it's a response to wage-repression that has been going on for decades. Trump simply leveraged the angry response to that to win. There are many more sensible political responses but they don't come from the establishment, they come from the left wing, and establishment/business interests/the media in the US and the UK is fanatically hostile to the left wing. Hitler's electoral rise was a similarly a response to wage repression by the Weimar Republic who was similarly fanatically hostile to the German left wing (KPD).
