“Pimping ain’t easy” is the old phrase commonly used in the world’s oldest trade. But that phrase has more meaning nowadays according to high profile St Paul pimp that goes by the alias “Representative”.
“Yo, my customer base is gone” said the Representative. “Walz straight up be hurtin us working class folks who are just trying to earn some cheddar. I have less money for suit jackets. Less money for my hats. Can barely pay my rent, yo”.
The pimp, legal name Eric Lucero, has been outspoken about the shutdown for months. Here’s a post from his page back in September.
The Representative is well known at the Capitol where he derives the vast majority of his clientele. Since April, the bars & restaurants in his territory have either been closed or opened at limited capacity. More importantly, legislative clients have gone to virtual sessions and meetings, therefore taking their business to places like North Dakota and Iowa, and leaving Lucero and his girls without jobs.
Here’s a video from his new show with former Miss Alexandria, 3rd Runner Up, Mary Franson.
