Spencer Pratt attacks NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani over Independence Day speech

Former Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt used X to launch a harsh rebuttal to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s July 4 address marking the United States’ 250th anniversary. Pratt labeled Mamdani a “communist” and said “communists always start with the bad memories,” accusing the mayor of trying to erase American history.

Pratt’s posts urged Americans to celebrate patriotically, stating that “it’s okay to love America… it’s necessary,” and he urged supporters to raise a finger and say “F*** you, communists!” The exchange highlights a partisan clash over the framing of national history and pride during Independence Day celebrations.
