I think Trump will be the last Trumpian GOP President ever, because demographics make it harder and harder with each passing year for someone who is vocally anti-immigration to be elected.

The GOP will rebrand and moderate eventually, after being in the wilderness long enough. they aren't going anywhere.

Eh, between the citizenship question, voter suppression, gerrymandering, the electoral college, and the structure of the senate; they can retain power for plenty of time.

This is the only thing that makes me question the future viability of the GOP. If the Party can successfully maintain minority rule while increasingly embracing white nationalism over an extended period of time, it'll engender immense hostility. So much so that when the demographic levee eventually bursts, there'll be nothing left to grab hold of. In more specific terms, if Trump and his successors manage to harden a ~30% deficit among Millennials and Gen Z voters, then yes, there will come a time when the GOP is no longer a national party.

Don't count on the demographic levee "bursting." Again, as demographics get more hostile to Republicans, they can just continue tweaking the rules to continue winning elections.
