Yeah, the way they kept this coalition together was by telling the business community that their more extreme stuff on abortion and immigration was just stuff they told the rubes to get their votes. Now they're in a position that both constituents expect them to deliver, and there's a lot of conflict there. Draining the swamp is the opposite of creating an entirely new agency that's all swamp, and while the business community pretends they want more border enforcement, a lot of immigration policies are explicitly designed to create an entire class of workers that's perpetually in a precarious position so they can undermine unionisation efforts (H1B1 visas being a perfect example of that).
