It's really hard to get through to a skull as intentionally thick as yours. Let's try this again. The question you should be asking is why Democrats feel entitled to do nothing about deteriorating cities and then think voters should keep voting for them. Does that kind of entitlement sound like a winning strategy to you?
DP. You’re a fool if you think Spencer, a person in his 40s with no employment history, is going to do anything about deteriorating cities or…anything. All he will do is go on tv.
Let's see. In this corner, we have known mediocrity Karen Bass. She is a lying demagogue who has done such a terrible job that she resorted to encouraging mobs to riot in the streets in the hopes of using Trump's failures to distract from her own failures...and it didn't work even though Angelenos hate Trump. That's how bad she is. Can you identify any of her successes without googling some propaganda? Well, she can't either, hence why Spencer Pratt basically wiped his feet on the back of her head before what was left of her was dragged out at the debate.
In the other corner, we have Spencer Pratt. He is an unknown quantity who is articulate, smart, speaking frankly about voters' frustrations, and highlighting what a horrible job Karen Bass has done. He insists he'll listen to the people and then had the low-hanging balls to campaign in some of the most dangerous, gang-infested parts of LA to hear and amplify the residents' concerns...places Karen Bass won't be seen in. BUT he is a political neophyte and he has the audacity to be openly to the right of the regressive and extremely aggressive mouth breathers who think running LA is their birthright. Wait, that last part is another plus in his column.
According to you, it's baffling not to go with Karen Bass, right? Gotcha.

LA doesn't deserve a reality TV show idiot just because their current mayor is a terrible executive who needs to go. Biden was a terrible leader who needed to go but as we've quickly come to find out since January of 2025, replacing an unfit leader with someone who is both unfit and unhinged is not a winning formula. Why can't Bass be met with competent competitors who are deserving and qualified for the position?
Sounds like the LA political scene is a microcosm of our national political scene. A race to the bottom.
Describe what makes a person deserving and qualified to be a politician.
For this high profile executive position, you'd be looking for someone with elite leadership skills and first and foremost, integrity. Prior executive experience would be an obvious bonus.
What are elite leadership skills? What sort of executive experience?
An executive like Trump, who makes them feels good about hating fellow Americans while they do insider trading, give their nepo spawn government contracts, and all that.
Pratt will plunder Los Angeles’s budget for him and cronies putting him up to run.
Meanwhile, Bass has LA’s murder rate at a 65 year low, the new Metro lines are opening, and the city is on a building spree to get ready for the Olympics.
White conservatives hate her because she is black.
OMG. You will never grow up, will you? Yes, blame her unpopularity on the fact that she's black, rather than the fact that the vast majority of Angelenos are fed up with her. Idiot.
Either way, the mayor will have suffered the rebuke of having nearly two-thirds of voters casting their ballots for someone else — a sharp turn of fortune from the general election of 2022, when the then-congresswoman captured upward of 43 percent of the vote in a 12-candidate primary and then defeated real estate developer Rick Caruso by close to 10 points.
The voters in the nation’s second-largest city are predominantly Democrat, like Bass. But her struggle to win them over shows that anti-incumbent anger transcends partisanship, especially in cities where rampant homelessness is in clear view.

Yawn, cry some more. She’s getting way more done than Pratt ever would. She’s been on top of all the Olympic organizing. Like I said, crime near record lows. Gun crime way down.
And yes, white conservatives in California absolutely do hate black politicians. I should know, because I’m a white guy from LA who heard all of it
She’s not a perfect politician. But soooo much better than grievance filled nepo brat Pratt who is a profligate spender and the crooks backing him. Plus, Pratt would bend the knee to Trump immediately.

Because voters know all of this, and look at just how bad things are in LA under Karen Bass, and think “well, he can’t be worse than Bass.” That’s why.
I don’t think you realize just how bad things are in L.A.
Yup, I remember people thinking about how awful Biden's leadership was and then they doubled down on their stupidness by electing Trump to a second term to replace Biden. Replacing Bass with Pratt would be a similar scenario. Bass needs to go but choose the replacement wisely. Leadership matters.
