They didn’t think he would win term I, and so they weren’t mobilized around him. In fact “they” were mobilized around other candidates that Trump was a threat to when he swept the primary. So his win threw the party into disarray. They spent the Biden presidency reorganizing around Trump. The people signified by “they” changed, and their tactics changed once they realized how well his bullshit works. They had four years to rally around a common enemy: Biden, and they have entered term II with a plan, with a whole executive branch ready to go, and of course with a pre-bent-over SCOTUS ready to go.
