Of all the four Traditionalist Conservative candidates to be the 267th Pope (Raymond Cardinal Burke, Robert Cardinal Sarah, Gerhard Cardinal Muller, and Wim Cardinal Eijk), I think Raymond Cardinal Burke is the best candidate and the most qualified.
Here is his Wikipedia page:

Here are his really important comments on the Tridentine Mass, why it's important, and why the Second Vatican Council and the Novus Ordo are guilty of liturgical abuse against the Tridentine Mass:
"In March 2011, Burke said that too many priests and bishops treat violations of liturgical norms as something that is unimportant, when they are actually "serious abuses" that damage the faith of Catholics. He criticized a perceived lack of reverence in the way the modern liturgy is sometimes conducted, stating "If we err by thinking we are the center of the liturgy, the Mass will lead to a loss of faith."
In a 2015 interview, Burke reiterated his concern that man has become center of mass, saying that "In many places the Mass became very priest‑centered, it was like the 'priest show.' This type of abuse leads to a loss of the sense of the sacred, taking the essential mystery out of the Mass. The reality of Christ Himself coming down on the altar to make present His sacrifice on Calvary gets lost." Burke blamed modernization of the liturgy after the Second Vatican Council for declining Mass attendance.
"In some cases it actually became hard for people to bear because of illicit insertions, foreign agendas, and imposition of the personalities of priests and congregations into the liturgy to the point that people began to think that the Mass was some sort of social activity...If one understands what the Mass truly is ? Christ Himself coming down from Heaven to renew the sacrifice of Calvary ? how could you possibly not be there on Sunday?" he asked."
