Popular Post webfact Posted September 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2020 U.S. Republicans criticize Pelosi over hair appointment FILE PHOTO: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi speaks by video feed during the virtual 2020 Democratic National Convention as participants from across the country are hosted over video links from the originally planned site of the convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, U.S. August 19, 2020. 2020 Democratic National Convention/Pool via REUTERS WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Republicans criticized House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday for going to a hair salon in San Francisco in an apparent violation of the city’s coronavirus pandemic regulations, but the Democratic leader said she had been told by the salon the appointment was allowed. Pelosi briefly addressed the issue to reporters in San Francisco, saying, “I take responsibility for falling for a set-up.” Under strict rules to combat the coronavirus pandemic, hair salons in San Francisco were still prohibited from admitting customers on Monday, when Pelosi had her appointment, although salons elsewhere in the state and across much of the country were already open. President Donald Trump and other Republicans seized on a brief video of Pelosi’s appointment, which first aired on the Fox News channel, to accuse Pelosi, the most senior elected Democrat in Washington, of hypocrisy. Trump - who took months to embrace mask-wearing as a way to slow the spread of COVID-19 - used the incident to attack Pelosi, saying on Twitter that she is “constantly lecturing” others. “The Beauty Parlor owner must really dislike Crazy Nancy Pelosi. Turning her in, on tape, is a really big deal,” the president wrote.

An appalling response to getting caught out in corona hypocrite mode. Like a robber blaming the cctv in the store he looted for setting him up. It is unforgivable that she does not offer a full apology for her hypocrisy, a full apology to the poor single mom salon owner who suffered for months under Nancy's (clearly needless) shut down, and maybe a rethink about corona shutdowns. That, or make an official 2 tier system where the dem elites can do what others, the plebs, can't? Not a good day for team Dem is it. 7 4 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Republicans are too busy Working. They have jobs. I predict that NYC and LA will both be abandoned by any red voters (aka people with money) and the wealth will be moved into other smaller towns. NYC already has 100,000 vacant condos.. everyone is leaving. liberals can have that <deleted>. Good luck 6 1 2 4 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She did the best thing anyone can do for a small business, made an appointment, kept the appointment and paid her bill. Perhaps to assuage Illiberal faux outrage the ‘poor single mum salon owner’ should be publicly flogged for accepting appointments. [edit] The hair dresser did a good job, Nancy’s hair looks great, I hope the salon does well out of the free publicity it’s getting.

The concerns run much deeper. If she is right, and the single mom salon owner tricked and set her up like this, how can Nancy deal with the likes of Russia and China where deceit and subterfuge is the norm? She is in way out of her depth. Or she wasn't tricked and set up. She is just a straight hypocrite that has attacked Trump for months over Covid, yet here she is, the chief alarmist herself not wearing a mask to protect those around her in close indoor confinement.

pegman Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) There are a lot of better reasons to fault nasty Nancy Pelosi. #1 is breaking her own rule about primaring Dem incumbents. It blew up in her face with Markey over Kennedy. Next round AOC & friends need to line up a popular west coast progressive to take out moneybags Nancy in her 2022 primary. As for Trump, with nearly 190k American dead from COVID on his watch just maybe he should <deleted> about hair salons.

The OP is an exercise of pettiness and time wasting. For her age Pelosi looks OK. trump has been a complete disaster for US citizens in mitigation for Covid. trump's ongoing slow crash of mental faculties doesn't help, in fact he should resign before causing further damage to the Office of the President of the USA and the nation.

chrisinth Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Sort of interested in what charges will be brought against the hair salon owner. After all it should be her that is charged for being open & taking appointments when it wasn't allowed. Yes, I do understand the embarrassment factor for Nancy will take the limelight, but breaking the law is breaking the law. Does seem like an odd action/risk to take by the owner if it was indeed a 'setup'. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Srikcir Posted September 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2020 Trump's inept and often absent leadership has lead to over 100,000 needless American deaths - with no end in sight. No appolgy, no remorse and instead he proclaims 'mission success'. But let's focus on Pelosi's hair appointment. If insanity reins, Trump is king. 3 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 These political threads are funny. Everyone is so passionate about this, when you really should be outside getting some exercise and doing something. No wonder why so many people are unhealthy and are afraid of covid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
