TIPP poll exposes polling oddity in this election

Trump leads in in 5 and tied in 3 of the top 10 concerns - but Harris holds a 3-point overall lead?

Now Tipp actually tosses a bit of speculation into this:
Which raises a significant question: Are Americans too cowed by aggressive big media outlets and loudly polarized political rhetoric to tell opinion-takers and poll-makers the truth about what they actually believe? Have voters been intimidated? It seems that may be true.
I&I/TIPP asked voters, apart from their voting preferences, which candidate would be best at addressing a long list of serious critical national problems? The question read: “Regardless of whom you support, whom do you trust more on the following issues? ”Here, Trump appears to have a fairly solid lead, despite slightly trailing in the overall numbers.
This is true even as one of the issues voter preferred Harris was on taxes. Apparently, they believe she will lower their taxes before Trump would. But in spite of that oddity, she really doesn't lead by much anywhere. Trump holds commanding leads on immigration and national security and seems to hold a slight edge on overall economic issues (which also seems odd that it is not larger). Either way, he is favored on paper with who would do better, so why vote for the person you believe would be worse?
