According to gossip columnist Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice on Substack, Trump is “quietly weighing whether to throw his support behind” the 42-year-old television figure Pratt.

An insider informed Shuter that “Trump loves celebrity candidates, and [Pratt] knows exactly how to dominate headlines.”

The notion of endorsing Pratt, who is a registered Republican, has “absolutely been discussed” within the White House in anticipation of the primary on June 2, as per the report.

A White House representative stated to the Daily Mail on Saturday morning that any endorsement would be made directly by Trump on Truth Social.

Spencer Pratt says he represent all of Los Angeles

Pratt has maintained that he does “not represent a party” following his designation as a “MAGA Republican” by his opponent Nithya Raman, an LA City Councilmember affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America.

"I represent all of Los Angeles. I don't have a campaign manager. I don't have campaign consultants. There's no political party backing me," Pratt told NBC LA.

The reality television star, who is now aspiring to be mayor, received considerable acclaim for his performance in a televised debate against Raman and the current LA mayor, Karen Bass, on May 6, with approximately 90 percent of viewers identifying him as the winner, according to an NBC LA poll.

Pratt has often criticized Bass regarding her management of the LA wildfires that devastated thousands of homes in Southern California, including his own property valued at $3.8 million, in January 2025.
