How the Machine Buried Spencer Pratt › American Greatness
Edward Ring
Bill de Blasio appeared on NewsNation on June 2 and was asked to comment on Spencer Pratt’s campaign. De Blasio smugly described Pratt’s ads as “inappropriate” and wondered, “Who is behind them?”
If de Blasio hadn’t actively participated in the decline of New York City during his disastrous eight years as its mayor, his arrogance might just be dismissed as unwarranted and clueless. But de Blasio is part of a machine that profits from urban decline. Behind his arrogance is a grasping, cynical hypocrite delighted that the machine on the West Coast is as potent as the one that elevated his own mayoral tenure and now supports Zohran Mamdani.
And so way out west, the machine has struck again. In the run-up to California’s June 2 primary, Spencer Pratt, running for mayor of Los Angeles, gave us a moment of hope. But as it turns out, he will not appear on the November ballot. Angelenos will choose between a democratic socialist extremist in the form of Nithya Raman and the “moderate” option, the ex-communist, incompetent incumbent, Karen Bass.
Calling Spencer Pratt’s ads “inappropriate” is a grotesque inversion of truth. Policy failures in Los Angeles have been so intellectualized and contextualized that only crude descriptions of reality on the streets of that beleaguered city had any chance to wake voters up from their brainwashed acquiescence.
