SouthernWorldwide.com – Spencer Pratt, known for his reality television appearances, recently had a significant meeting at the White House, including face time with former President Donald Trump. This encounter occurred just before Trump’s departure for the NATO summit in Turkey.
Pratt shared a photo of the meeting on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter. The image depicted Pratt and his son seated at the Resolute Desk, with Trump present. Also visible in the photo was an unidentified individual and what appeared to be White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
This meeting follows Pratt’s unexpected foray into politics. He previously made headlines with a bid for the position of Los Angeles mayor, challenging the incumbent, Karen Bass. Despite garnering national attention, Pratt’s mayoral campaign ultimately did not succeed.
A White House official confirmed that Pratt met with “lots of people” during his visit to Washington D.C. This suggests a broader engagement beyond just the meeting with Trump.
Further underscoring his political aspirations, Pratt announced on Tuesday the launch of The WAR Foundation. This organization is dedicated to combating political corruption. Its methods include media campaigns, in-depth investigative research, and public education initiatives.
The WAR Foundation states its core objectives are to foster transparency and accountability. It also aims to restore what it terms “common sense” in public discourse. A key tenet of the foundation is its opposition to socialism within government and cultural institutions.
Pratt’s political engagement has not gone unnoticed by Donald Trump. In May, Trump publicly endorsed Pratt’s mayoral campaign, encouraging California voters to lend him their support. This endorsement signaled a level of political alignment between the two figures.
Pratt’s visit to the Oval Office occurred shortly after the Fourth of July holiday. During this period, he gained significant traction online for his strong criticism of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Independence Day remarks.
Mayor Mamdani’s comments during the holiday had focused on criticizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. He also spoke about Elon Musk and what he characterized as the “arena of supremacy” present in the United States.
Mamdani’s remarks included observations such as, “As we mark 250 years, what do we see? We see a city of contradictions within a nation of contradictions.” These statements sparked a strong reaction.
In response to Mamdani’s statements, Pratt posted a viral video on X. In the video, Pratt stated, “Notice how the communists always attack your history.” This was a direct critique of Mamdani’s perspective.
The video was filmed by Pratt while he was beside his RV, situated on the site where his home had previously been destroyed in the Los Angeles Palisades fire. This event was a significant motivating factor behind his decision to run for mayor.
During the viral video, Pratt wore a T-shirt that read, “the anti-socialists social club.” This attire further emphasized his ideological stance.
Pratt elaborated on his patriotic message in the video, saying, “The communist destroys your history so he can take your home and rebuild it in his image. That’s why it is your patriotic duty to celebrate today unashamed. It’s ok to love America, not only is it ok to love America, it’s necessary to love America. We are the only bulwark against tyranny on this earth.”
