Following last night’s emotional series finale to “Hacks,” Hannah Einbinder is speaking out against Spencer Pratt‘s run to be L.A.’s new mayor.
“There’s a lot of wealth in this city and I think that there are a lot of people who masquerade as Democrats or people on the left, but really, money is their key issue and that’s what leads them to vote for people like Spencer Pratt — who is endorsed by Donald Trump,” Einbinder told Variety‘s Marc Malkin earlier today at the Critics Choice Association’s Celebration of LGBTQ+ Cinema & Television in Los Angeles. “It’s important to resist that.”
Pratt, star of MTV’s unscripted hit “The Hills,” has quickly gained attention in this year’s mayoral race to unseat incumbent Karen Bass. Pratt lost his home in the devastating L.A. wildfires and has gained the support of celebrities and right-leaning politicians.
Einbinder says she was “pragmatic” in her thought process, leading her to endorse Nithya Raman over Rae Huang: “It’s very complicated. No one is perfect, there are no perfect candidates. I’m underwhelmed in a lot of ways but I have made the choice to put Nithya down, and that’s what we’re doing girls!”
After Malkin said, “I want to see you run for office,” Einbinder quipped back, “You don’t and neither do I. No! Spencer shouldn’t and neither should I, OK? I’m with Lisa Rinna, I stand with Lisa Rinna.”
