I wonder if the right analogy is how sometimes a coach is a great coordinator but a lousy head coach.

I'm not sure his success stands for very long. He's traded short term wins for likely long term losses because he saw the job as a stepping stone to the white house. The longer he stays on the job, the more his policies get undone by the courts and the more likely he is to face the long term damage he's done to those short term wins.
He's also making enemies within his own party in the state because he's prioritized his agenda over the party's wants/needs.
