    Michigan State University political scientist Matt Grossman recently noted a consistent phenomenon in models designed to forecast the election outcome: Those that take polls into account have tended to show a slight edge for Harris. But models that ignore the specific candidates and look only at what political scientists call “fundamentals” — such as the rate of economic growth and voters’ approval of the incumbent president — have generally pointed to a Republican win.

    The takeaway is simple: A normal Republican would be planning a victory party right now.

    Instead, former President Trump is locked in a toss-up race.

    That partly reflects how well Harris has put together a campaign in the little more than three months since President Biden left the race. Mostly, however, it’s a measure of how Trump’s unpopularity holds down Republican fortunes.

    • Tariffs protect domestic production by reducing the profitability of foreign products. The easiest example to see is automobiles.
