Reporter Issues Warning About Trump Ally Spencer Pratt's Plans For L.A.
MS NOW reporter Jacob Soboroff hit on a striking comparison between the rhetoric of Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt and that of President Donald Trump.
Soboroff told host Rachel Maddow that Pratt’s motivation to run for office was primarily the loss of his home in the devastating 2025 Palisades Fire. However, Soboroff likened the former reality TV star’s rhetoric on the issue of homelessness to that of Trump’s rhetoric on immigration.
“Spencer Pratt talks about unhoused people and the affordability crisis in Los Angeles, but the way he speaks about unhoused people here in L.A. is just like Donald Trump talks about immigrants in the United States of America,” Soboroff said. “That he wants to round them up and put them into a ‘campus-like facility’ in partnership with the federal government.”
Soboroff added that while Pratt may have many boisterous ideas about how to run the U.S.’s second-largest city, his solutions “sound a lot more like the guy at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.”
