Not in my opinion. For those who want to skip the slideshow, here they are
States rights
Taxation is theft
Small Govt. is better govt.
Pro life
2nd Amendment
American exceptionalism
Drain the Swamp
Family Values
Personal responsibility
Conservative values
"The Constitution says"
Free-Market Solutions
Support the troops
Secure the borders
"welfare state"
Job Creators
Right to work
Silent majority
Liberty and freedom
"Bootstraps" -self reliance
Traditional Marriage
7 debates, each covering 3 of the topics named. That would be must see TV

Just to elaborate a few of these "phrases"; 'States Rights' I don't want a central government in charge of every jot and tiddle of everyday life. According to the late RBG, roe v Wade should have been a state issue. It is now, so let the states haggle over it.
"Taxation is theft" Yes, if it is not used for the purpose it was collected for. Gas, road use, license plate taxes, used for bicycle trails, ad agencies, and to offset bus fares, is an example that sticks in my craw.
More to come

That is exclusively a phrase we hear from right wingers caricaturing D takes on the Orange Man (who, yes, I agree is bad).

"Taxation is theft" doesn't out you as a Republican voter (for the record, the list says Republican voter, not simply Republican as this topic's title says). "Taxation is theft" is a phrase I see far more among libertarians who dislike both major parties; actually, I'm pretty sure the first time I ever heard that phrase was from someone affiliated with the Libertarian Party.

Hmm... I take issue with a few of these.
I find it very hard to believe that only Republicans believe in
The 2nd Amendment
Family Values
What the Constitution says
Supporting the troops
The right to work
Liberty and freedom. (Although it is getting more difficult to believe Democrats support this for everyone.)

I think the "article" , if that's what they call it, was intended to goad, not inform. Especially since the first picture was a woman in a maga hat.
I read through them, shrugged, and thought: "with a few caveats (the one about free markets needs more commentary), I pretty much agree with all of them."
Wouldn't Democrats agree with most as well?

If the phrase was just "orange man" then sure. But it was "orange man bad". I have only seen that phrase used by conservatives (sometimes abbreviated as OMB) as a way to disparage criticisms of Trump; it basically functions as a synonym for Trump Derangement Syndrome (also abbreviated into a three-letter acronym of TDS).
