The secret Democrats don’t want you to know about Spencer Pratt — and why it makes him a great politician

Spencer Pratt has been portrayed by the left-wing media as a one-time reality star villain with no experience, but BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler did a little digging into the Los Angeles mayoral candidate’s past — and there’s much more to him then his critics are letting on.

“What is Spencer Pratt’s experience?” Wheeler asks. “Well, most people say none. He just kind of has a good idea of what he might do. He has some connections. Or they might say a reality TV star, a villain on television.”

However, Wheeler explains that his experience is actually “a track record of being majorly successful based on his own ingenuity and hustling.”

“Spencer Pratt graduated from USC with a degree in political science, so politics is not totally foreign to this man. He, yes, he starred on a reality TV show, ‘The Hills,’ but he also created and executive produced another reality TV show called ‘The Princes of Malibu’ on Fox,” she explains.

This, Wheeler says, proves he is a “successful businessman.”

“That’s not just nepotism. You have to get ratings with your show, which means it has to be clever. It has to be good. You have to be able to pitch it and show why viewers are going to like it,” she explains, pointing out that this is only a “fraction of his experience.”

“After his reality TV days, he became a community advocate and a citizen journalist. He filled a void in Los Angeles in the Pacific Palisades after his home and his parents’ home and his neighbors’ homes all burned down,” she says.

“He documented the reality of what was happening, what it was like, what had happened to him in the Pacific Palisades in the aftermath of the fires. This is when the mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, was dancing in Ghana,” she adds.

Wheeler explains that Pratt’s ability to “identify a void” and “being a citizen journalist at a time when politicians in the mainstream media were gaslighting the entire country about what happened in the Pacific Palisades Fire” is necessary to be a politician who actually creates change.

“On top of serving that need, which is a form of entrepreneurship, he then took his wife, whom, by the way, he’s been married to for a long time … took his wife’s 15-year-old music … and he brought it back to life,” she explains.

“I’m talking last year and the year before. And he made this 15-year-old album an international hit. It reached number one on iTunes and number two on Billboard Dance. It was charting in Europe, in the U.K.,” she says.

“This is Spencer Pratt’s experience,” she continues, adding, “He took things that weren’t, and he created them. He took things that were broken, and he exposed them. He took things that were dead and brought them back to life.”
