Idaho Salon Owner Faces Backlash After Trump Comments

Tiffney Prickett, the owner of Voiage Salon in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, is facing a significant loss of clientele after posting a TikTok rant labeling Donald Trump voters as 'racist, homophobic, and misogynistic.' In her videos, she expressed her disdain for Trump supporters and claimed that anyone who aligns with such views inherently shares those negative attributes. As a consequence, many customers have chosen to boycott her salon, with one long-time client even demanding a refund for gift cards due to discomfort with Prickett's statements. Prickett has acknowledged that she is 'suffering the consequences of my own actions,' admitting that she would prefer to work elsewhere than cater to clients she perceives as politically opposed to her values. The backlash is particularly notable in Idaho, a state that overwhelmingly supported Trump in the recent election. Prickett's experience serves as a reminder of the potential repercussions of publicly expressing extreme political views in a politically homogeneous community.
