Trump's election temper tantrum - does he know he's toast?

The Alaska Senate race shouldn't even be competitive. The Democrats haven't won there in almost two decades. But as a sign of how badly the Republicans are doing, Donald Trump has ordered his department of justice to pre-emptively sue the State in an attempt to block the certification of the Dem frontrunner Mary Peltola. The President is furious that Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan is having to share the ballot paper with another Dan Sullivan - an independent who critics are accusing of being a wrecking candidate trying to assist the Dems. Is this early temper tantrum a sign of just how bad the midterms could be for Trump and his party? And is it a worrying sign of a President looking increasingly unlikely to accept defeat?

Later - why the Dems are talking about Epstein, and why JD Vance's decision to back Vivek Ramaswamy's deplorable ad could come back to haunt him.
