Of course not, but Trump's highly effective alienation of women and minorities could help widen & solidify their support for the Democratic party, which is extremely bad for Republicans. The country is rapidly growing more diverse and GOP voters essentially just nominated a bigot whose candidacy could cost Republicans almost the entire non-white vote for a generation or more, not to mention lower support from other important demographics. This is on top of Republicans essentially ceding the Millennial generation to Democrats.
If this plays out as expected, Republicans could find themselves in the political wilderness as early as 2022 - 2024. Republicans will bounce back eventually, but it will be a long time before that happens.
