The Democrats who, a-hem, ‘won’ the runoff in the Los Angeles mayor’s race after ‘besting’ the initial second-place finisher, former reality TV star Spencer Pratt, may have just ticked off the wrong person.
You may remember that one of the things that propeled Pratt to being a serious contender in the race was his hard-hitting AI-generated campaign videos. They were shared and viewed millions of times all over the country, and I wouldn’t be surprised if some Republican somewhere picks up his campaign team. They obviously know their stuff.
To that point, Pratt released what you could call a concession video earlier this morning. After incumbent loser Mayor Karen Bass and hard-core left-wing socialist Nithya Raman see it, they’re going to wish the mail-in ballot fraud scheme elevating Raman to second place had never happened.
In it, Pratt says he is now moving beyond the “campaign phase of [his] mission to save Los Angeles to the next, more interesting phase.” He reminded viewers his goal was never to be mayor of L.A., but to expose the corruption that fuels the city’s Democrat-dominated politics.
In a reference to late-night loser Jimmy Kimmel’s offer of a U-Haul to move the Pratt family’s non-existent posessions (lost in the Palisades fire) out of L.A., Pratt said:
You think you can get rid of me that easily?
Hey morons. I didn’t get in this for political power. I got in this to expose this corrupt machine. Nothing’s changed. You enjoy your worthless meetings in City Hall. I’ve been lighting you up every single day and now I don’t have to worry about offending CNN viewers. I don’t have campaign laws hamstringing me now. It’s war.
Then he turned his attention to Bass and Raman, and if what he’s saying is true, they’re in for some big headaches over the next couple of months:
My goal hasn’t changed. I’ve been laser-focused on stopping these commie animals, and I will stop them. If you think we uncovered a lot of fraud and evil in the campaign, just wait. We have some recordings of one of your exalted candidates doing and saying something that would make her resign in shame. I was saving it for the general election. Go ahead and pick your demon, certify your choice, and then you get to see it.
So Karen, Nithya, ask yourselves, is it possible that one of your employees may have a recording of you doing or saying something that would force you to resign in disgrace? Hope you sleep well at night over the next five months, because you know who hasn’t slept well at all for the last 17 months? My mom. All my neighbors in the Palisades. All the moms who worry about their kids walking past drug addicts in front of their schools. All the business owners getting crushed in the LA economy.
Angelenos have been struggling for years now all while corrupt politicians and fraudulent NGOs profit off the misery and fleece us for the tax dollars.
Well, now we’re flipping the script. I want all of you awake at night sweating, worrying about 5 am with FBI busting in your door, breaking open your office, because I assure you, they’re coming. You think your election was gonna stop me? If you wanna stop me…
It’s a savvy political move by Pratt and a reminder that he’s far more strategic than many Democrats and media allies have suggested. By keeping his cards close to the vest, he’s forcing his opponents into a state of uncertainty, and that uncertainty can be a powerful weapon.
As speculation grows, Democrats and their supporters may find themselves scrambling to determine which candidate is being referenced, what damaging information could be involved, and who might have leaked it. The more energy they spend chasing answers, the greater the chance they’ll make mistakes, reveal internal divisions, or inadvertently draw attention to issues they’d rather keep out of the spotlight.
After all, given the controversies and political baggage that have accumulated over the years, there is no shortage of potential suspects or possible scandals for observers to consider.
Grab some popcorn, and let’s watch this together.
