Some GOP "strategist" believes that if the coming blue wave truly wipes out the GOP majorities, that they will turn on Trump and help remove him from office. Loathsome human/toad hybrid Marc Thiessen believes that Trump should jettison the Alt-Right, now that Bannon is on the ropes.
This is, of course, nonsense.
Trump and the Alt Right have confounded establishment Republicans because they don't understand their own party. Their party isn't the principled small government conservative party they think it is. It is the seething, racist, sexist accumulation of grievances that Trump has exposed it as. All the things Democrats have been saying about the GOP are true.
The GOP can't abandon Trump anymore than a fish can abandon water.
UPDATE: Chait puts it better.
