White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany kicked off her briefing on Thursday by playing on loop a video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) at a salon earlier this week in San Francisco, where the Democratic leader flouted COVID-19 restrictions in the city.
Trump’s response is obviously not worth discussing.
The owner’s comment is slightly more interesting:
The owner of the salon, Erica Kious, told Fox News that she felt that it was “a slap in the face” seeing Pelosi flout COVID-19 rules.
Ashamed to be here but not nearly outraged enough to stay.

To review:
Pelosi’s staff asked if w/in guidelines to go to salon.
Stylist double checked with owner, who gave ok.
Stylist and Pelosi alone in salon.
Owner leaks tape to Fox.
In a 2 -party consent state.
Owner herself violated SIP orders repeatedly.

And the stylist backs up NP’s side of it.
Now goodbye.
Answer: Nothing has stopped Donnie and his minions from being grotesquely hypocritical in the past so why would they cease such behavior now. Their hypocrisy is calcified, i.e. like cement.
They’re scrambling for any crumb.
Hat tip to @inversion
It was a right-wing set-up, and unfortunately, Pelosi fell for it. (Which she’s admitted.)
She’ll certainly be changing hairstylists after this.
I wouldn’t weigh in on whether a set up or not but Speaker Pelosi could have defused a lot of this simply by saying she should have followed guidelines and apologized for the error
“McEnany’s briefing on Thursday began with security footage playing on loop showing Pelosi not wearing a mask…”
And McEnany condemned the outrageous unacceptability of not wearing a mask, in a crowded room full of people, while…(wait for it)…not wearing a mask?
With 185k+ COVID-19 death toll, Russian bounty killings and no extra aid for the unemployed yet…not withstanding those recent hurricanes victims…
Why does the Orange Comb Over care so much about Pelosi’s hair?
Dare I say Trumpy is envious of Pelosi’s shiny locks?
What Pelosi says…
Although as noted by a poster below and by other articles, it’s much more nuanced than that…
(Regardless: nice to see you back, Miguel, compadre…)

She did follow guidelines, double-checking before she had the appointment.
She has nothing to apologize for—because it has been proved to be a set-up.
The salon owner is a right-wing jackass, now running for an elective office, and using this as a tool to win votes.
The rush to try to attack without thinking it through is the hallmark of Trump and stooges.
They might have actually made things closer in the polls if they weren’t completely undermining their own messages with self-pwns.
I guess there is a place in this world for idiots. It’s called Trump Campaign.
WH Trolls Pelosi On Salon Appointment Despite Trump’s Disastrous COVID Response
Yes because the media is all about “balance” and “bothsides” bs.

Thank you times Infinity.
The owner also obviously supplied the security footage. This was a setup and Pelosi was taken in and deservedly shown in a not very good light. But there are plenty of other sins in this world that I personally think weigh a helluva lot more than taking off your mask to have your hair washed.
This is a manufactured event, and it’s quite honestly not worth my time to worry about it. It will be yesterday’s papers in about 24 hours too.
How does McEnaney get her hair done and where? And does she wear a mask? For that matter, where and under what circumstances does the orange shithippo, Strokahontas? Or Slenderman and Collagen Barbie? and the rest of the evil gaggle?
Inquiring minds…
You can see the mask under her chin.
