President Donald Trump may be preparing to toss a political grenade into Los Angeles’ mayoral race, by backing reality TV firebrand Spencer Pratt.

Buzz surrounding a possible Trump endorsement of Pratt has exploded inside conservative circles as the former reality star’s longshot campaign starts gaining serious attention far from the Hollywood Hills.

“Trump loves celebrity candidates, and Spencer knows exactly how to dominate headlines,” a Republican insider told gossip columnist Rob Shuter.

The source added that the prospect of Trump backing Pratt has “absolutely been discussed” inside the White House ahead of the June 2 primary.

A White House official told the Daily Mail on Saturday that if Trump decides to jump into the race, the announcement would come straight from him on Truth Social.

Pratt, 42, has become one of the race’s most unpredictable figures, and despite being a registered Republican, he’s running as an independent.

“I do not represent a party,” Pratt declared during a recent debate, casting himself as an “angry Angeleno” focused on Los Angeles’ spiraling homelessness crisis, public safety concerns, drug crime and street chaos.

The TV personality’s political rise has already sparked attacks from rival Nithya Raman, who branded him a “MAGA Republican.”

Raman serves on the Los Angeles City Council and is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.

Mayor Karen Bass has lately claimed that Pratt is leveraging a “general sense of anger” to build momentum for his mayoral campaign.
