Kelsey Grammer remains disappointed that Spencer Pratt didn’t advance in the Los Angeles mayoral race.
“What Spencer brought to this particular race was the status quo has failed us here, failed us in an enormous way, and most people understand that the voting process here — or protocol here — has revealed a lot of shortcomings,” Grammer, 71, exclusively shared with Us Weekly while celebrating Fox Nation’s new documentary The Patriot War. “A lot of it just doesn’t make sense anymore.”
Although Pratt, 42, was initially in second place behind current mayor Karen Bass, the final vote count placed Nithya Raman in the No. 2 spot. She will face off against Bass, 72, in November.
According to Grammer, many Los Angeles voters were “fed up with the way” the city was doing things. He also cited how the devastating wildfires in Altadena and the Pacific Palisades were handled.
“The people who have been in charge — our leaders, supposedly — have been asleep on the job, and we need to hire somebody else,” Grammer claimed. “Doesn’t look like we’re going to this time, but you know, maybe the clock is running out for these clowns. I’m not happy with them.”
The actor continued, “I hope we clean it up. I hope some responsible thinking gets involved at some point. I hope responsible voting and counting.”
Election officials have maintained that the voting process in Los Angeles is fair and accurate. Experts have also claimed that more conservative and Republican voters turned in their ballots early, while many Democrats waited until the last minute to vote.
When asked whether celebrities should speak out for specific politicians, Grammer argued it is a positive for every American to get “involved.”

“If you have an opinion, you go ahead and express it,” he said. “I pray that you would express an opinion in a wise way and an informed way. … I think you do need to be responsible about it. You can’t start spouting off without education. If you don’t know what you’re talking about, maybe you shouldn’t talk.”
One thing Grammer won’t hesitate to discuss is his new project with Fox Nation. The Patriot War is a new series that explores America’s fight for independence and George Washington’s faith and tenacity.
The program aims to reconnect audiences with the foundational principles and historical figures who shaped the United States.
“It’s another sort of page in my ongoing dedication to getting the story of our past out there — our history,” Grammer explained to Us. “I’ve been involved with Fox Nation on, I think, four projects, but this one I feel particularly good about.”

When looking ahead toward the future, Grammer said he has considered running for political office. At this time, however, he’s hoping to see strong candidates step up and make a difference for all Americans.
“I think you gotta make good suggestions, have good ideas, follow through with them, bring along a crowd of people that actually believe in something positive and love each other,” Grammer shared. “And you can then make a difference.”
The Patriot War is streaming now on Fox Nation with new episodes being released Sunday, June 28.
