MAGA Florida state Senator Jay Collins on Wednesday tried to claim it was an “error” when he filed an amendment excepting the Confederate stars and bars to a bill prohibiting any other than the American, state, or municipal flags from flying on government buildings, the Daily Beast reports.
Hard to see how including “The flag of the Confederate States” on a list of proposed exemptions was an “error,” but Collins tried his best to disown it tweeting “Any insinuation that Jay is a confederate sympathizer is disgusting.” The entire bill has apparently collapsed as a result of the “error,” with supporters withdrawing amid fears it might be wholly unconstitutional.
