The whole article is sarcastic and borderline absurdist, comparing the functioning of a legislative body to a children’s musical chair, and attributing childish attributes to the participants (such as being “BFFs”, an abbreviation of the childish idea of “Best Friends Forever”, and going the Sadie Hawkins route… refers to a dance in which the traditional roles are reversed and the girl/woman asks the boy/man)

In this case, the “good hair” comment is meant to highlight the lack of depth (in intellectuality or, perhaps, moral character of the participants) as if having “good hair” were somehow an important characteristic for people in high leadership positions. In the context provided, the author may not have meant it as personal criticism directed towards the individuals, but just as an overall sarcastic comment on the proceedings.

As the only “African American” was explicitly referring to the USA nation as “Americanism”. According to what people say about their bad hair, or their good hair, it is true that the phrase “bad hair” (and presumably its opposite, “good hair”) gained currency among the

African American community, but it has long since passed into general usage.
