曾出演真人秀的明星斯宾塞·普拉特正在参与洛杉矶市长的三人竞选,他在周三晚的NBC附属台辩论中的表现获得了如潮好评。
普拉特的对手分别是现任市长、前民主党国会女议员凯伦·巴斯,以及谢尔曼奥克斯选区的社会主义市议员妮提亚·拉曼。这场竞选官方无党派属性,犯罪、移民相关争议以及对毁灭性野火的应对措施仍是洛杉矶选民关注的核心议题。
已故亚利桑那州参议员约翰·麦凯恩之女、保守派评论人士梅根·麦凯恩对普拉特的表现欣喜不已。
“这并非夸张之词,”她在X平台上写道,“斯宾塞·普拉特为我们千禧一代年长一辈如何在参选时沟通、表达观点和传递竞选信息树立了典范。”

2026年1月7日,斯宾塞·普拉特在加利福尼亚州太平洋帕利塞兹。
“他拿到10/10,毫无可挑剔之处。天生就是当政客的料。这场辩论他杀疯了。”
包括《市政厅》专栏作家达斯汀·格雷奇在内的其他观察人士都注意到,普拉特在被问及非公民投票政策的“是或否”问题时只用了一个词作答,而巴斯和拉曼的回应则被批评者称为“废话连篇”。
当被问及好莱坞地区市议员雨果·索托-马丁内斯提出的允许非公民在本市投票的 ballot 动议时,普拉特告诉主持人“不”。
“哇,洛杉矶市长辩论的主持人问了一个简单的是或否问题:非公民是否应该有权在地方选举中投票?斯宾塞·普拉特:‘不。’凯伦·巴斯:废话连篇。妮提亚·拉曼:废话连篇,”格雷奇说道。
X平台上的其他用户分享了支持普拉特回答片段的表情包,其中一个被广泛使用的动图是克里斯·塔克和艾斯·库伯向后退并大喊“我靠”。
在《洛杉矶时报》的专栏中,古斯塔沃·阿雷利亚诺表示普拉特“大体上取得了成功”,但给人的印象是一个爱吹嘘的家伙,他有足够的魅力称自己“谦逊”,却不会让人觉得讨厌。

“他的具体政策细节不多,除了说自己会比其他候选人做得更好,并且会将公共安全置于一切之上。但不同的是,他是台上唯一用轶事来推销自己的人,他提到了与受虐动物的对话、不敢在户外就餐的市中心上班族,以及为保障拍摄安全而雇佣当地帮派成员的电影制片人,”阿雷利亚诺写道。
在一篇更正面的评论中,《加州邮报》作家乔尔·波拉克表示,普拉特被主持人“当作宴会上的乞丐”对待,但仍成为台上“最具个性的人”,尽管他在政治上毫无经验,却成功塑造了“沉稳可靠的大城市市长”形象。
“大家都知道他会谈论凯伦·巴斯在野火应对上的失职。但最令人印象深刻的是他对其他议题的娴熟应对,从犯罪到住房,”波拉克说道。

“斯宾塞·普拉特刚在直播中把凯伦·巴斯骂得狗血淋头,”他说。
佛罗里达政治网站编辑埃里克·L·多蒂认为,另一段与野火相关的发言堪称“重磅收官”。

Spencer Pratt is standout LA mayoral candidate in debut debate performance: ’10/10 no notes’
May 7, 2026 1:10pm EDT / Fox News
Conservative commentators praised his fire critique of Bass and his fluency on crime and housing issues
By Charles Creitz Fox News
Former reality TV star Spencer Pratt, running in a three-person race for Los Angeles mayor, received rave reviews following his performance during Wednesday night’s NBC affiliate debate.
Pratt is facing incumbent Karen Bass, a former Democratic congresswoman, and socialist Councilwoman Nithya Raman of the Sherman Oaks district in the officially nonpartisan race, where issues of crime, immigration-related conflicts and response to devastating wildfires remain on Angelenos’ minds.
Conservative commentator Meghan McCain, daughter of the late Arizona Sen. John McCain, appeared ecstatic at Pratt’s performance.
“This is not hyperbole,” she said on X. “Spencer Pratt is the blueprint for how my generation of older millennials needs to communicate and present their ideas and campaign messaging when running for office.”

“He is 10/10 no notes. Absolute raw talent. Killed the debate.”
Other observers, including TownHall columnist Dustin Grage, homed in on a moment in which Pratt gave a one-word answer to a yes-or-no question on noncitizen voting policies, while Bass and Raman offered commentaries that critics called “word salad.”
Pratt told the moderator “no” when asked about Hollywood-area Councilman Hugo Soto-Martinez’ proposed ballot motion to allow noncitizens to vote in the city.
“Wow, the moderator asked a simple yes or no question in the LA Mayor’s Debate. Should noncitizens be able to vote in local elections? Spencer Pratt: ‘No.’ Karen Bass: Word salad. Nithya Raman: Word salad,” Grage said.
Other respondents on X shared memes favoring clips of Pratt’s responses to questions, including a much-utilized GIF of Chris Tucker and Ice Cube reeling back and shouting, “Damn.”
In the Los Angeles Times, columnist Gustavo Arellano said Pratt “mostly succeeded” at the debate but came off as a boisterous bro with enough charm to call himself ‘humble’ without coming off as obnoxious.

“He was light on specifics, other than saying he was going to do better than the others and that he would prioritize public safety above all. Instead, he was the one person on stage who used anecdotes to sell himself, citing conversations about abused animals, downtown workers too afraid to eat outside and film producers hiring local gang members to keep their shoots safe,” Arellano wrote.
In a more favorable review, California Post writer Joel Pollak said Pratt was treated “like the beggar at the feast” by moderators but still became the “strongest personality” on the stage and surprised by creating an image of a “solid, big-city mayor” despite his political amateurism.
“You knew he would talk about Karen Bass’ failure in the fire. But what impressed most was his fluency with other issues, from crime to housing,” Pollak said.

Political commentator Steve Guest called Pratt’s fire-related critique of Bass an “amazing moment.”

“Spencer Pratt just torched Karen Bass on live TV,” he said.
A similar fire-related moment was a “mic drop,” according to Florida Politics editor Eric L. Daugherty.
