Given that we have come up with proposals and the EU are just standing there with arms folded, I really don't see how you can blame this on the government.
David Cameron came up with some very modest proposals and was rebuffed. The EU is just intransigent and doesn't have a democratic bone in its body of officials. I don't see why you want to defend them and place all the blame on May.
You still haven't told us what you would do in her place.

I think developments have overtaken your post. As we speak, Dominic Raab is meeting Michel Barnier.
Looks like a deal with the EU has been agreed; we will have to remain in a customs union until the technology comes along that enables a soft border in Ireland.
If Brexiter MPs are confident that this technology can be developed then they should support the PM. At the moment, they don't seem confident of this so Theresa May will have to get some of her support from the opposition benches.
