With the Los Angeles mayoral race heading toward a primary, actor and comedian Rob Schneider<\/a><\/strong> revived his iconic character from the 1998 film The Waterboy to endorse former reality TV star Spencer Pratt<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n Appearing on Fox News Channel\u2019s Saturday in America with anchor Peter Doocy<\/strong>, Schneider discussed the race and Pratt\u2019s candidacy. When Doocy asked whether he thought Pratt could win, Schneider responded in his famous Townie voice, saying, \u201cYou can do it! But I don\u2019t trust the Democrats!\u201d<\/p>\n Doocy replied, \u201cThat\u2019s exactly how I was hoping you would say that.\u201d<\/p>\n Schneider argued that Democratic Party loyalty has prevented Los Angeles voters from honestly assessing city leadership.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Democrats have their ideological captives and they\u2019re not letting it go,\u201d Schneider said. \u201cThe thing is, they\u2019ve convinced their people that no matter how bad things are, these people are so evil, somehow it would be worse.\u201d<\/p>\n He used satire to make his point, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s like, \u2018Yes, your entire town burned down. But imagine if it was burned down by someone who was transphobic? Can you imagine? At least there were rainbow colors to the flames. Yes, there\u2019s a lot of human poop. But imagine if that poop was conservative.\u201d<\/p>\n Schneider then turned his criticism toward incumbent Mayor Karen Bass<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n Karen Bass faced criticism from Pratt supporters after multiple celebrities backed his mayoral bid. By: ZUMAPRESS.com \/ MEGA<\/p>\n \u201cIt literally is the last days of the bunker for Karen Bass,\u201d he said. \u201cThey just convinced them it would be way worse if they had a conservative. You gotta try something. Los Angeles, how could it be worse? Try something different!\u201d<\/p>\n Schneider had previously endorsed Pratt during a May 16 appearance on Saturday in America with Kayleigh McEnany<\/strong>. During that interview, he criticized Bass and said he was \u201cglad to see more people speaking about [the elections], because that\u2019s what it\u2019s going to take.\u201d He added that residents had \u201cnothing to lose,\u201d followed by a wildfire-related remark that drew backlash online.<\/p>\n His endorsement formed part of a broader critique of city leadership that he linked to his support for Pratt\u2019s campaign.<\/p>\n Pratt\u2019s campaign has attracted attention and endorsements from public figures, including Taylor Lautner<\/a><\/strong>, Joe Rogan<\/a><\/strong>, Elon Musk<\/a><\/strong>, Kristin Cavallari<\/strong> and Paris Hilton<\/a><\/strong>, according to reports.<\/p>\n Pratt\u2019s independent run attracted attention due to his past reality\u2011TV notoriety. By: Snorlax \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Pratt, a registered Republican running as an independent in the nonpartisan election, has climbed to second place in polling ahead of the June 2 primary.<\/p>\n Pratt has repeatedly criticized Bass, accusing her of mishandling wildfire preparedness and response. Reports note that he has blamed city leadership for inadequate fire-response resources and tied his mayoral bid to losing his home in the 2025 Palisades Fire.<\/p>\n Those criticisms have become a central theme of his campaign and have featured prominently in coverage of the race.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With the Los Angeles mayoral race heading toward a primary, actor and comedian Rob Schneider revived his iconic character from the 1998 film The Waterboy to endorse former reality TV star Spencer Pratt.
