Coming to grips
Republicans are still having trouble coming to grips with the presidential election.
Also, on today’s Sunrise:
— While the rest of the world congratulates Joe Biden, the guys running Florida’s government are in a state of denial. Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sens. Rick Scott and Marco Rubio are all encouraging Donald Trump to keep fighting in court. But Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Eugene Robinson says no amount of recounts and lawsuits will change the electoral mathematics.
— Robinson spoke during a virtual meeting of the Forum Club of the Palm Beaches.
— And now for something completely different: Equal time for prayer. The Forum Club began its meeting with a rabbi praying for peace and healing.
— The opposing viewpoint came from TV evangelist Kenneth Copeland.
— After a six-hour delay, Florida’s Department of Health finally releases the latest COVID-19 casualty count: 58 new fatalities, almost 4,000 new cases and no explanation for the delay.
— And finally, checking in with a couple of Florida Men. One will make you proud; the other … not so much.
