To the editor: Given the way Spencer Pratt is emulating Donald Trump, I assume he must be auditioning for a major role in the MAGA world (\u201cSpencer Pratt appears to concede election in aggressive video threatening Bass and Raman,\u201d<\/a> June 12). Along with the name-calling of his opponents (\u201cmorons,\u201d \u201ccommie animals\u201d referring to Mayor Karen Bass and Nithya Raman, two women of color \u2014 really?) and the hyperbolic fear-mongering and threatening language (without Pratt to rescue us, L.A. will \u201ctumble headlong into the abyss\u201d), he has proved to be the perfect understudy to Trump. I believe Pratt is more than ready for his close-up on the national stage.<\/p>\n

He states he got into politics to \u201cexpose this corrupt political machine,\u201d so I urge him to move to Washington as soon as possible. We won\u2019t miss him, and there is a rather large corrupt machine there that is in dire need of attention.<\/p>\n

Lynn Eames, Los Angeles<\/p>\n

To the editor: After reading about the threats and the names that Pratt hurled at Bass and Raman, one thing is clear: The voters in Los Angeles made the right choice.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t need an angry, unqualified, sore loser running our city. We have enough trouble dealing with the one in the White House.<\/p>\n

Linda Cooper, Studio City<\/p>\n

..<\/p>\n

To the editor: I don\u2019t know much about Pratt. I even live in a separate voting city. About all I know about him is that sick message he posted, reported on by the Los Angeles Times. He does not belong anywhere near where public service is required.<\/p>\n

Juan Matute, Claremont<\/p>\n

..<\/p>\n

To the editor: Hey, Spencer Pratt. Your 15 minutes are up. Time to move off the stage.<\/p>\n
