Republican talking points that should be dead now

In a reasonable world, Donald Trump should have killed these talking points that Republicans have spent years using to tear down Democrats:

Family values
Christian values
Apologizing for America
Hating America
Frivolous lawsuits
Personal responsibility

Sorry, Republicans, but you can't use these anymore. At least, not with a straight face.

Along with "fiscal responsibility" and any reference to what "the American people" might think, want or say.
