Spencer Pratt's LA mayor bid draws late-night and local criticism

tvMay 28, 202621615

Reality star Spencer Pratt announced a run for Los Angeles mayor, and Jimmy Kimmel Live dedicated a segment titled "Trump Assembles His Cabinet of Clowns" to lampooning his campaign. Actor and host Lisa Rinna publicly opposed Pratt's bid at the American Music Awards, drawing a firm line between Hollywood and city politics. Local commentators warned Pratt's outsider celebrity candidacy could split votes and capitalize on dissatisfaction with Mayor Karen Bass's handling of recent wildfires. The race matters because a high-profile celebrity campaign can divert donations and nonstop media attention away from established candidates, changing voter dynamics in a close contest.

'You gotta be kidding me with this': Jimmy Kimmel exquisitely excoriated reality star and aspiring L.A. mayor Spencer Pratt as 'another attention-seeking narcissist' and 'jerk.' okmagazine.com/p/jimmy-kimm...

A "prat" is a common British slang term for a foolish, incompetent, or annoying person. Historically, it also refers to a person's buttocks (giving rise to the term "pratfall") or a mischievous trick. That says it all.

L.A. VOTE Karen BASS for mayor, for L.A. Sake, for California Sake! For America’s Sake!

Kimmel pointed it out correctly; he’s like trump who craves the spotlight, but at least when trump first ran he had a job. Pratt and his wife spent all of their money on the belief the world was coming to an end, great judgment there.

Spencer Pratt? People are so dumb. There really is no hope for humanity.

If you live in LA, make sure you vote Raman.

A vote for Rae Chen Huang …. Is a wasted vote. Vote for Nithya!

Astonishing that anyone would vote for bass….please explain because it makes no sense

Ok, to outside-LA people: Pratt is the only Republican and only white in the race. He will get the same low-20s Trump got. The coalition is Copland-North, Copland-South, Scientologists, some non-white conservatives, and the vapid white westsiders that people think all of LA is.

Rae Huang's policies are good but she has zero fucking shot, so her position is clear: "If I dont win then I am fine with either Karen Bass or Spencer Pratt as mayor of Los Angeles". She and anyone voting for her are not serious people. Grow up.

I wish people that cared about these positions and the responsibility the positions come with were more likely to run and have a chance. Or that we lived in a time where who runs a city or state didn't protect or doom the city/state. 🙃 We all need to pay more attention to our local elections. 😮‍💨

I would be a vastly superior Mayor of LA to Spencer Pratt. I say this as someone in Chicago who is not qualified to be mayor of any city.

It'll be hilarious if, after all the "liberal" media stories saying "Democrats screwed up L.A. so badly that Spencer Pratt might become mayor," the dumb motherfucker doesn't even make the runoff.
