Political attack ads can backfire when they inadvertently make the targeted candidate appear reasonable or reasonable, as demonstrated by the 2026 Los Angeles mayoral campaign where an attack ad against Spencer Pratt actually helped his image by presenting his positions on homelessness, police funding, and public employee unions in a seemingly reasonable light.

The WORST Political Attack Ad Fail You'll Ever SeeAñadido:
Now, um I mentioned that the Democrats uh want political revolution, and that's true. But what I didn't say is that they're good at it. The Democrats are they're not good at politics. And I realize you probably already know that if you have a functioning brain, but I'm just saying if you want some additional proof, have some additional fodder on this, we can look no further than the campaign ad running in the Los Angeles mayoral race. Now, this was I just want you to understand this. This was supposed to be an attack ad. This was paid for by the LA Union opposed to Spencer Pratt for mayor 2026. That is who is paying for this ad. But I'm just saying I think it might be like maybe it's the thing that gets him elected because this makes him sound extremely reasonable.
Here's the ad.
>> Republican Spencer Pratt is the last thing Los Angeles needs for mayor. Pratt opposes using taxpayer money to build brand new houses for our unhoused neighbors, saying [music] it's time for the homeless to get help or get out.
Pratt thinks LA needs thousands more police officers rather [music] than more social workers. And Republican Spencer Pratt thinks public employee unions should have less power, not more. LA is on the right track [music] and needs to stay the course. Vote no on Republican Spencer Pratt.
>> Oh, hold on. This sounds great. He He's like, "No nakedness, no homelessness, no no we we don't we want to clean up the streets. We don't want you guys to pay taxes to enable drug habits." Like that sounds actually really great. Where do I line up to vote? And the best part of this is like, like I said, this was actually people opposed to Spencer Pratt. So Spencer Pratt didn't have to pay a scent for this free advertising.
Unfortunately, the dumb asses who created this group opposing Spencer Pratt did I don't know who in the world who in their right mind would pay this 20 $221,000 to create that ad just to make Spencer Pratt sound really reasonable.
I'm like, I don't you guys are really bad at this. I don't understand where where's the gotcha. I didn't I didn't hear it. I didn't see it. And by the way, in case you were wondering where the attack ad got their information from, it was actually from. They were like, "This is a big ooh gotcha moment.
They stole what Spencer Pratt said in a podcast." So when I'm mayor, my plan is first three weeks, signs up across the city. No more nakedness, no more drug use, no more robbing, no woring dogs in the street, >> no more dog abuse. Very >> on every sign, on every bird. So that and we're going to go around. We're going to warn everybody, hey, got three more weeks of this. Like clock's ticking. Just keep telling everyone just to so the people that are aware, they're like, oh wow, there's a new mayor in town. They may start leaving. And then when the 3 weeks or maybe we'll even do two weeks, maybe people will want it faster. And then once we start enforcing laws, boom, streets will be back. Do you know who else? I'm going to bring in the CDC because there's medieval diseases in these encampments. They're not swabbing these encampments. They're not swabbing the streets. People are just living in feces and drug use and dogs burning and bodies. We need these streets cleaned.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, you got him. You You got him. He said he thinks that their their streets should be shitfree.
You got Oh my gosh. You got him. That is the end of Spencer Pratt. You got him.
What a radical MAGA. Ultra. What was it, Stephen? Ultra. Ultra MAGA. Ultra mega extremist.
>> Is that it?
>> That's what That's what Joe Biden coined.
>> Yeah. Who knows? You to add many ultra mega ultra mega mega >> ultra mega mega extremist radical ultra Nazi.
>> Yeah, >> that's want people to get sick and be safe.
>> He and he wants dogs to not be uh experimented.
>> Alive. Yeah. Or would Yeah. burned and Yep.
>> Wow. You got him. I don't know how he's ever going to recover from that one.
Now, I mentioned they're not good at this, the Democrats, and again, that is true. They're particularly not good at it in the state of California, because there's another train wreck California race, the one for governor that is happening right now. And the Democrats, dude, their own rules could come back to bite them because in the state of California that is so Democrat candidates are so bad.
I'm just saying it's it's as close as it's ever been in recent history that I can remember that there may be it may be a Republican that they have to go vote for and maybe essentially ends up actually getting elected. But Katie Porter, one of the terrible Democrats in the race, is still trying to do damage control about the viral video of her from several years ago berating her staffer.
>> And the state could lose.
Get out of my shot. I wanted to tell you that that's actually incorrect. It's it's not that it's electric vehicles.
It's that if we don't meet the commitments under the Paris climate accord.
>> Okay. It does. Okay. You also were in my shot before that.
Stay out of my shot.
I just I um I don't know.
I guess I'll say it this way. You'll literally never find a video of me saying that. Actually, I take that back.
you will find one video of me acting like that towards the people that I work with who work for me. And that is uh precisely the moment that that Katie Porter video uh unraveled and we we made we made a joke about it. Like we joked I had someone come up behind me. It was a bit and I was like get the out of my shot. It was a joke. In all seriousness, there will never be a video like that that exists of me. It tells you all you need to know about a per a person to know. So, she's like, "Oh, she's gonna apologize for it. She's going to try to do damage control. She's gonna try to blame who she thinks it came from, which I will I'll I'll show you in just a brief second, but I just have to say it tells you all you need to know about someone that they would talk to people like that." Now, there are people in this industry who do talk to people like that. I would just say if any of those videos surface, boy, that person's going to have a a big career under there anyway. M multiple people, I should say. Um, so I get back to Katie Porter. There is a huge claim um about where the video came from. She's like, "It was my Democrat opponent, Tommy Styer. He's to blame." Well, given that Tom Styer is the person who leaked the video with me and the staffer from 5 years ago, he pretty clearly didn't think that I he pretty clearly wanted to be governor bad enough to knock me down to do it. And I've apologized for that video many times. because I am confident that is the case. I've been told by many people it's a Department of Energy video. It was only held by the Department of Energy and people can follow the trail to who his campaign staffers are and understand what happened there.
>> This is I just I one of my favorite things is when Democrats fight. I love it when Democrats fight. Now, by the way, for that particular claim, you know things are bad when fake news CNN has to include a disclaimer at the end of the interview because they're like, I we have no idea if this is true. She is just lobbing out like wild and crazy statistics and uh CNN has to give a disclaimer.
>> Um, Congresswoman, thank you for coming on. I should note that there we don't have evidence that Styer leaked that video of you. If you have it, please bring it. And also, you said some pretty tough stuff about Javier Bera. If he wants to come back on the show, uh, he is more than welcome to do that as well.
Thank you for being here today. I appreciate it.
Thank you. Can I just for a second, Stephen? I think objectively she looks way worse now. She is Is it Is it Is it like is her face just sunken in? I can't put my finger on it. Is it the haircut?
I don't know. She looks terrible. I think she looks better there.
>> I mean, >> I need a man's opinion.
>> Uh, I mean, >> she looks like a man here.
>> Yeah, she's off. It's >> okay. You're looking at a zero to a.5.
So, like, is that really a a difference?
I'll say I'll say the I'll take the OMIC one, I guess. I'm going to >> Okay, >> I'm going to say she she's got a half a point now.
>> Okay. Okay. So, you're you're going with you're like you can brown bag it. That's fine. You put put a paper bag. Oh, do not go that far. [laughter] Do not dare go that far.
>> We're brown bagging it.
>> I don't want mashed potatoes porn on me.
So, I'm going to get I'm [laughter] going to I'm going to try to be nice.
>> Stephen was like, "Whatever gets me out of having Katie Porter dump scalding hot mashed potatoes on me is what that's the direction I'm going right now."
>> No scalding hot mashed potatoes. I That's all [laughter] I need.
>> Whatever Katie Porter wants me to say.
Please Katie, don't hurt me.
>> [laughter] >> And you know what? She's created that reputation for herself. So, that couldn't happen to a more deserving uh little lady, whether she's little or whether she's big. I'm just I just I want the commenters to to tell me.
Typically, people look better when they lose weight. And I just I feel like she looks worse and I can't figure out what it is. Maybe it's the hair. I don't know.
>> We should do a Twitter poll on this.
>> I should or we could do a a YouTube poll.
>> Oh, well, I don't got to do that. Even better.
>> Inquiring buttons. I don't know.
Inquiring minds want Inquiring minds want to
