President Ronald Reagan once said, “If you’re explaining, you’re losing.” I’d like to propose an addendum to the Gipper’s piece of political wisdom: If your presidential campaign is solely focused on killing as many unborn babies as possible, you’re losing. 

President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign is not going according to plan. The 81-year-old is trailing former President Donald Trump both nationally and in nearly every swing state. The president can’t run on foreign policy victories; the plodding, U.S. taxpayer-funded war in Ukraine has no end in sight, and Biden’s reputation on foreign policy took another hit with his inexplicable decision to fund both sides of the Gaza war, almost certainly prolonging the conflict long past its natural expiration date.
