Spencer Pratt political and social commentary

Overview

Following his Los Angeles mayoral campaign, Spencer Pratt has used social media to issue various political and social critiques.

In late August, Pratt released a monologue addressing what he described as moral and institutional declines in the United States. He specifically criticized social media users for defending Lindsay Clancy, a mother accused of killing her three children, characterizing the online support as a form of “mass psychosis.” He also cited the COVID-19 era and the leadership of California Governor Gavin Newsom as evidence of institutional failure.

In early September, Pratt shifted his focus to celebrity politics. He condemned George Clooney’s remarks at the Venice Film Festival, labeling them a “woke scold lecture.” Pratt argued that Clooney’s luxury lifestyle made his political commentary hypocritical, specifically noting that the cost of Amal Clooney’s festival attire—including a custom dress and Cartier jewelry valued at $149,000—could have been used to permanently house eight homeless people.

By mid-September, Pratt expanded his criticisms to other Hollywood figures. He targeted actor Ryan Reynolds following comments regarding the flaws of the 1980s and expressed approval of reports alleging that “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” might end its run on ABC in 2027, despite disputes from the network regarding the show's future.
