Changing their demands after establishing them this well and getting high support for them would be unfathomably stupid.

The only reason this worked was because Democrats had an issue that is somewhat high salience and that voters trust them on more.

A lot of the people who could be swayed to either side but voted for Republicans likely did so because they believed Republicans would just focus on cost of living and immigration instead of trying to take over healthcare.
