Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who’s been lobbying to be Joe Biden’s VP pick and who had some of the most onerous lockdown restrictions in the nation, finally lifted the state’s stay-at-home order June 1. Restaurants can open next week, but gyms, hair salons, movie theaters, and casinos remain closed. Hair salons have been some of the first small businesses to reopen in other states.
Whitmer suggests citizens just stick it out, or if they can’t just put their hair in a ponytail, Google how to give a haircut.
Hair salons will still not be open, even though the stay-at-home order has been lifted. Governor Whitmer suggests people Google how to cut hair. Read More: https://t.co/Y78IJOJAnM pic.twitter.com/5nY400hblt

Whitmer doesn’t seem concerned with the George Floyd riots going on in her state, probably because she’s already been confronted by those white domestic terrorists who stormed the capitol to protest the lockdown, so rioters are nothing to her.
I am not sure who is worse: Whitmer or Cuomo

Ok, I give up trying to understand these governors. @GovTimWalz allows haircuts but no inside restaurant dining she allows dining inside but no haircuts. Both are afried to take too extreme of action against riots and allowed cities to burn. #wtf #timeforchange

Some people are worried for actual people, Karen. The stylists and the assistants who work in those shops who are getting zero income. And then the salon closes and the place they were leasing gets no income. You know, real life

It's not about people doing their own hair.
It's about the people losing their businesses.
What does she have against the service industry?

It's about saving face and reminding everyone she's in control, when she has no control.

Should barbers and beauticians google how to make money without a job?

I suggest the people of #Michigan Google "How to recall a Governor."

I think they should Google your next opponent

Just open them up. Let her try to enforce it after all this nonsense.

She's insufferable.

BREAKING: its riots and looting now.
— TonyFassett (@TonyFassett) June 2, 2020
Seriously: As Twitchy just pointed out, social distancing is out. You don’t see any Karens rushing in to stop the protesters, although that would be a battle for the ages.

ruthless enforcement for salons but will coddle rioters

Don’t worry about rioters, they will get hair product when they break into and loot hair salons in your state.

So don’t go into the barbershop on your way to throw a brick through the front window and burn it down! She’s awesome!
— Go Irish (@sjenk26) June 2, 2020
Maybe wait in the street and someone will gladly tear your hair out for you….
— Social Distancer (@aarond23) June 2, 2020
People should set up haircutting stations in the middle of the riots because we know she won't be patrolling there.
— Derek Drayer (@derekdrayer) June 2, 2020
Hair salons: just pretend there's a riot going on inside. Apparently, the virus does not affect those.

You can't get your haircut but you are more than welcome to riot.

And after you Google it, you have her permission to break into a store, steal scissors and anything else you want, and leave unmolested by the cops.

'Only the glass windows of hair salons will be allowed to be opened, by using a brick. That is an acceptable situation.
Any other deviation from this order will be dealt with using the strictest measures.'
-Governor Whitmer

Looting is cool. Hair cutting bad. Gotcha Gretch!
— atomicvibe (@tridentum156) June 2, 2020
Just break into a salon and use their clippers. On your way out, take the cash register.
— Paul Pixley (@pixman2006) June 2, 2020
Just open and if she sends in the police just let them know you’re not running the business, you’re looting it.
— Steve Jail (@dogg_hi) June 2, 2020
Your governor is a raving ?! Bless all you citizens of Michigan.
— Mr.Tibbs (@Buck_McCray) June 2, 2020
We haven’t heard that Biden is vetting her, so that’s one bullet dodged.
