Not that I necessarily think your conclusion is wrong as far as strategy goes, but that chart is a pretty bad justification for it. It suggests that there's a real split among Republicans and some of them could in fact be reached, particularly as the Trump wing goes farther and farther afield into crazytown. The speeches in the Senate today give the same impression. I think they're probably illusory, honestly, but that's not a good basis for your position.
