I'm in Manila, Philippines rn. And the average income is 8k per capita compared to LA's 48k per capita.
Yet thier poor areas aren't as Filthy and dystopian as Skid Row, and other parts of LA.
Y'all should feel humiliated LA looks more 3rd World @LACityCouncil
NINE LA city incumbents ran for reelection. Only two are failing to get 50% in their races:
• Karen Bass: 35%
• Hydee Feldstein Soto: 19%
Everyone else has an outright majority. So don’t let Karen Bass make you think her 35% is impressive. Its not. It’s weak.
@LexStepp This spin doesn't mean anything when Hollywood didn't come back from the 2020 Covid Lock downs.
And under the last 4 years of Mayor Bass have gotten worse.
I lived there for 8 years from 2014-2022. Can't gaslight the downfall of Hollywood.

Hot take:
The L.A. Mayoral general election is between Bass and Pratt. Raman conceded.
Oh wait, that’s just what happened. Not hot at all. A luke warm take at best.
But if you’ve spent the last 24 hours on X listening to what the idiot-influencers are saying, you probably don’t know that.
John said that during LA’s upcoming mayoral runoff campaign @spencerpratt has a chance to take advantage of the fact that 65% of the votes in the primary election didn’t go to @mayorofla Karen Bass! @KFIAM640
@skiidmarxx@VoteHub Because the alternative is offering to use my tax dollars for Methhead dental care over fixing the numerous potholes that busted 4 of my car tires.
If the LA Mayor race is close I’d advise the Pratt campaign and any other candidate to PULL the CURE file from the county registrar TODAY. And I assume it’s easy for Pratt to just start curing Republican ballots knowing his ROI is decent. Any other candidate will have to do age and geographical targets on the Dems they cure because a Chatsworth Democrat isn’t the same as a Silver Lake one for example. Yup, I’d be CURING today, and if it ends up not being necessary no big deal.
@Bluphoenicks1@AntiToxicPeople Pratt's gonna get Democrats to vote for him. Like this guy.
And he's gonna have 5 more months to campaign like Zohran Mamdani.

🚨 CNN reporter left STUNNED in live L.A. interview: “As a DEMOCRAT, you're voting Spencer Pratt?”
VOTER: I like his approach to homeless. As a person who was homeless myself. I was able to change my life, 10 years sober...his approach is REALLY good.“
@Bluphoenicks1@AntiToxicPeople I can actually defend Pratt you Partisan Goofy.
His power washing ad alone is a better solution than the Status Quo of Mayor Bass last 4 years.

@Dez_Walker The reason why Pratt got 30% of the vote is because of the incompetence of Mayor Bass.
Who wants to use my tax dollars for meth head dental care rather than fixing the potholes in LA.
Your argument against Pratt is Goofy compared to this.
https://t.co/RsXWkWhZC9
Only 12% of people in LA even bothered to vote
Pratt is running less than 5% behind the incumbent mayor who was endorsed by all the power players in the city
If he can activate even a fraction of the people who have just checked out, he’ll pull it off
Tom Steyer keeps running around saying that it’s unfair that billionaires like him can buy our democracy, then spending hundreds of millions dollars to do just that, then failing to get elected, and then repeating all the same lines the next time around. It’s extremely funny.
@ErrolInvests@katerina5k@CNN People like you are literally handicapped with Trump Derangement Syndrome.
I've never voted for Trump. And voted for Pratt last night. Because Mayor Bass wants to give my tax dollars for Meth head dental care.
All because of your Goofy partisanship
