The Repubs’ plan would not have worked without the aid of a neophyte politician as president. A neophyte who really did not listen to anyone outside his comfort zone, which is clearly right of center. This neophyte also does not change his mind easily when confronted with actual hard facts; they seem to confirm for him that if he only had appeased a bit more, “cooperated” more, he could “won over” the Repubs.
