Haircuts for me, but not for thee

CHICAGO — Photos surfaced over the weekend showing the mayor after she got a haircut amid the state’s stay-at-home orders.
A woman posted photos on Facebook Sunday saying she “had the pleasure of giving Mayor [Lori] Lightfoot a hair trim.”
In the photos, the mayor is standing next to the woman and they are not standing six feet apart — plus, neither one was wearing a mask.
“Thank you for all the hard work & dedication put forth to help our city,” the post said.
Beauty and hair salons are among the many businesses closed to the public amid the statewide orders.
The mayor was asked about the trim during a press conference Monday.
“I'm in the public everyday and candidly, my hair was not looking the way it did," she said. "I thought I would do it myself but I thought it would be a disaster. So I got a haircut,” she said.
When asked if she was sending mixed messages to Chicagoans, she said she practices what she preaches, but said because she is a public figure, she got the haircut.
In other words, "I have to look good for you."

That is a very tough sell.

Sometimes, the oppo research just happens by itself. This will not play well when she's up for reelection.

My husband caved last week and called our hairdresser about haircuts. She does house calls now, so she came over and set up shop in the back yard. Wearing mask, shield, and gloves, she cut my husband's and both my daughters' hair. She charges a little bit more, but that's fair.
If we could do it, Pelosi certainly could have as well. -
Now she claims it was a setup. Even if they invited Her she could have asked them to come to her house instead. She is demanding an apology from the salon.

Somewhere Leona Helmsley is smiling.

Yeah, hiring your daughter's law firm in this matter is not the best optics.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

It doesn't matter that the salon knew this was happening or that they took precautions. What matters is she broke the rules set for all citizens for a trivial matter.

I misread that story. It is not her daughter's law firm. Her daughter just released the letter.
Regardless, it looks awful.
