In the opinion section of Tuesday's edition of The Wall Street Journal, Jason Furman, an economics professor at Harvard, compares the economic proposals floated by Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.
While Furman acknowledges that both have bad ideas, he concludes that Mr. Trumps' proposals pose a much greater risk to the economy than Ms. Harris'.
Furman also fears that if Mr. Trump is elected, it is more likely that he will have a cooperative Congress to enact his bad ideas, while it is less likely that Ms. Harris will have a friendly legislative body.
Furman's conclusions are similar to the position taken several days earlier by George Will, who also opined in the WSJ that the election of Ms. Harris may, by 2028, break the Trump fever of which he contends the Republican Party currently suffers.
