President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed reality television star Spencer Pratt’s bid for mayor of Los Angeles, stating he believes Pratt is a committed MAGA supporter, according to TMZ. Trump was asked about Pratt during a visit to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland and said he hopes the former The Hills star succeeds in the heavily Democratic city.

Trump’s Endorsement and Political Stance

Trump, who also launched his political career via reality television, said he doesn’t know Pratt personally but is willing to support him if Pratt supports his policies. “As long as he’s rocking with me, I’m rocking with him,” Trump said, per the report. The president also criticized the integrity of California’s election system, claiming it is dishonest and even making a remark about needing Jesus Christ to combat the “dishonesty” of Democrats.

Spencer Pratt’s campaign has included attacks on current Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom, both of whom are on Trump’s unofficial “enemy list.” Pratt, who has also been open about his desire for cameras to follow him in office for a potential docuseries, has taken a hard stance on crime, saying he is “laser focused” on making Los Angeles safe for mothers.

Pratt’s Public Campaign Moves

Pratt made a high-profile appearance at a Los Angeles Lakers game, using the event as a campaign platform, according to AOL.com — he was spotted courtside wearing a “Los Angeles Pratt” hat, a clear nod to the team’s branding. Pratt was seen chatting with fans and associates, including Linda Rambis, a longtime insider in the Lakers’ management circle; he sat in prime seats near Jeanie Buss and Jay Mohr, with the latter seated beside Mark Walter, the team’s new owner.

Pratt’s campaign appears to be capitalizing on the celebrity culture of Los Angeles, using his past fame and connections within the entertainment industry to raise visibility. The Lakers game appearance was described as a “very public campaign moment” and was treated like an unofficial rally for his mayoral bid.

Challenges and Expectations

Pratt’s campaign faces significant challenges in a city that has historically leaned Democratic; Trump acknowledged this during his remarks, noting it won’t be easy for a MAGA-aligned candidate to win in California. However, both Trump and Pratt remain optimistic about the prospects, with Pratt emphasizing the importance of gaining support from “moms that wanna feel safe in Los Angeles.”

If Pratt is successful. He and his family. Including his wife Heidi Montag and their children, are expected to be featured in a new docuseries following their time in office. The show would bring a reality TV lens to the mayoral role, blending politics with entertainment in a city known for both.
