In a twist nobody expected, former President Donald Trump publicly praised Spencer Pratt as he runs for Los Angeles mayor — and warned about voting in California. Read on to discover the full story!
On May 20, Trump told reporters he'd "like to see him do well," calling the former reality star "a character." He admitted he didn't really know Pratt but said he assumed Pratt supported him, repeating that he'd heard Pratt was a "Big MAGA person."
Pratt launched his mayoral bid in January and brands himself an "angry Angeleno," avoiding strict party labels. Though he registered as a Republican in 2020, he says he's not "MAGA" and frames his campaign around change after losing his Pacific Palisades home in last year's wildfire.
