Spencer Pratt puts out hilarious social media ad in LA mayor race, giving Karen Bass his 'house tour'

 by Monica Showalter

Sometimes, a good laugh gets the message across better than any other kind.

That must have been what conservative Los Angeles mayoral candidate, Spencer Pratt, must have thought in the weeks following a Los Angeles Times hit piece, which questioned whether he had a right to run for mayor, based on his being forced to move in with his parents in nearby Santa Barbara County because Mayor Karen Bass allowed the Palisades inferno to burn down his home. He later set up a silver-bullet trailer on his burned-out property and he now lives there.

His first response was an angry defense:

Now he's responding again, with a hilarious ad, skewering Bass and all the clowns who yelled about his temporary living arrangements, which by the way, still legally allow him to run for mayor. Using all his Hollywood-grade skills as an actor, he gave them his house tour:

It's hysterical -- he dresses up like an Architectural Digest swell showing off his luxury living, hostingly inviting the viewer in with a big smile -- to see his narrow, cramped quarters inside the silver-bullet mobile home, taking them to the toilet in back, demonstrating its miracle virtues, and then theatrically hopping onto his barracks-style bed as if it was a king-sized waterbed like you might see in the movies.

It's as splendid a skewer of Bass and all her incompetence as any seen, a splendidly sarcastic retort to the media and all its pretensions, and a cutely "L.A." status-style way of doing it. 

I can't see why that wouldn't appeal to voters, a lot of voters, not just everyone whose home burned out and now has to live in a trailer home, but every little guy in Los Angeles who goes without because Bass and company make sure they go 'with.' 

Polls in Los Angeles show that Zohran Mamdani-style communist candidate Nithya Raman is in the lead, with a sizable war chest. But it's not uncommon for the candidate with the biggest master of the media messaging to eventually take the top spot. Spencer, and his many allies, such as this one:

... are demonstrating the mastery of the media of the day. His ad has drawn 18,000 'likes' on X and 2,000 'shares,' despite being out only 17 hours as I write this.

Update: Oh, and he's doing very, very well on the fundraising front:

I've seen conflicting reports on whether he is ahead of Raman, but this is very, very, nice.

He and his are all putting out kickass ads for change in Los Angeles as a result. I hope it works.
