The LA mayor stuff is the dumbest conspiracy theory I've ever heard & makes no sense. Dem establishment/Bass wanted Pratt, not Raman, to advance.
Bass crushes Pratt in a 1-on-1 by 18 pt, while Raman beat Bass by 4.
Pratt's the rarity in LA less popular than the unpopular Bass!
Reporters doing basic fact checking is only "astonishing" if they've spent the last 10 fucking years sucking up to Trump. Literally the bare minimum of what a journalist is supposed to do and this dipshit treats it like some TRUTH TO POWER moment.
