Comedian Tom Segura subtly praised Los Angeles GOP mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt and his campaign on Joe Rogan’s podcast Monday.
“I think if you put together a campaign that gets some excitement and people talking, you have a chance in LA,” Segura said.
“The people there, they’re desperate. And also, they live for entertainment. So, entertain them a little. He’s entertaining as s***.”
Rogan pointed out that part of Pratt’s campaign included pressure-washing sidewalks with a stencil. The sidewalks were so dirty that the logo appeared on the sidewalks like a stamp.
“I think he’s good, I think his ideas are good,” Rogan said.
Segura called the campaign stunt “clever” and said, “If you think that that guy doesn’t have a chance, I would remind you that our president is a reality show f***ing host.”
Pratt is running against current Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and city council member Nithya Raman, both Democrats, to become the city’s next mayor.
Pratt has called out Bass over her handling of drug addiction and homelessness in the city.
Pratt’s campaign for mayor has grown immensely over the past few weeks. He captured the attention of President Donald Trump, who said, “I’d like to see him do well.”
Turning Point CEO Erika Kirk also commented on Pratt’s campaign, calling him “authentically American.”
