Byron York: In surge, Trump retakes advantage on economic issues

In a new Fox News survey, 51 percent of likely voters say Donald Trump would do a better job handling the economy than Hillary Clinton, while 44 percent say Clinton would do better.

It’s an issue on which Trump led Clinton for many months. But in the late summer, when Trump’s campaign was troubled and his economic message was drowned out by serial controversies, Clinton’s economic rating climbed until in one Fox poll, taken in late August, the two were tied on the economy, 48 percent to 48 percent.
