CNN's Don Lemon calls out Pelosi over salon trip, knocks 'set-up' claim
Fox News ^ | September 02 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

CNN anchor Don Lemon offered a rare scolding of a Democrat, this time House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., over her controversial visit to a San Francisco hair salon in violation of state and local coronavirus ordinances.

In security footage obtained by Fox News and timestamped Monday at 3:08 p.m. PT, the California political powerhouse is seen walking through ESalonSF with wet hair, and without a mask. During an appearance on MSNBC that night, Pelosi criticized President Trump for giving his Republican National Convention acceptance speech before a live audience on the South Lawn at the White House.

On Wednesday, the top Democratic lawmaker accused the salon of "setting her up" and called on the struggling business to apologize to her.

Still I am shocked. Perhaps it makes him go to sleep tonight with a self-righteous sense of well-being.

He won’t be back on the attack tomorrow.

but if he can talk at any one it is her. Like I said in another post her ice cream collection costs more than most of the appliances in my house.

She is the queen of the out-of-touch.

Yeah well, consider Don Lemon wants her to resign so there can be a new vote for speaker. He wants them to elect AOC as 3rd in line for the presidency. Nancy’s bad, but that should scare the hell out of all of us.

Lemon might be a pathological leftist, but I t doesn’t take a lot of brains to see that the optics for Pelosi on this one are going to be awful.

Pelosi’s daughter, Cruella Pelosi, came out with a full throated defense of mom, and attack on the salon owner.

In that scenario, Pelosi would win the election for House Speaker handily — with plenty of REPUBLICAN House members voting for her.

On a side note - that is one of the worst spam sites I’ve ever been to. I can’t even read the news story because of ads being thrown in my face!

If she has to step down she won’t be running for the job, but AOC sure would be. And she would win, because the democrats have lost their minds. Haven’t you noticed?

Oh, and besides, the republicans have no vote at all in who the majority votes in as speaker. It’s completely up to the party in the majority, currently the democrats.

It gets worse.

Pelosi has the Daily Mail doing her dirty work now...

Nancy Pelosi's stylist comes to her defense claiming the speaker WAS 'set up' by the salon owner because 'lockdown was her fault' - AND insists the hair appointment had been authorized

And does it read to anyone else like Pelosi has sicced the Gaystopo on the single mom?

Correction, both parties get to vote but your scenario is pretty far fetched since we don’t have the votes to pull off an upset and AOC would still probably win.

Baloney. The Speaker of the House is elected by ALL the members of Congress. Unlike other posts in Congress like the Senate majority leader, House minority leader, etc. ... the Speaker’s role is written into the U.S. Constitution, which doesn’t even mention political parties.

Remember Nancy also had a huge foreign trip planned in January and the President had to shut her down. I think Nancy knows all about how this virus started, where it comes from, and why she isn’t worried about getting infected.I think this is Nancy’s virus and she and her inner circle are immune.

He wants them to elect AOC

AOC is not old enough to serve as POTUS.

There are 30 Democrats representing House districts that Trump won in 2016. You think they’re voting for AOC in a House Speaker vote? LOL.

The thing to think about here is this:

How did the surveillance video (from a camera on the inside of the salon) make it into the hands of anyone who might use it to smear Nanzi?

I would imagine a lot of small business owners are hugely pissed by this ridiculous lock-down crap; it’s hurt their businesses tremendously.

Perhaps they are all so pissed that at least one, long-time salon owner who did Nanzi’s hair multiple times decided to get some pay back.

I do believe that this even happened is a sign of things coming this November for Democrats.

Notice the news keeps referring to it as a shampoo and blowdry. BS! She had her hair colored, which is against the edict of Emperor Newsome. A side note: it looks like she also has her eyebrows colored. Yuck.

She’s playing this story stupidly, but hardly worth stepping down for. If she just said, “yep I was dumb. Should not have done this.” The story would be over. Not sure why she went the “I was set up” direction. Talk about a stupid move. She represents the district and doesn’t know the rules.
