Spencer Pratt responds to report of staying in luxury hotel despite claiming to live in trailer

Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt was reported by TMZ to have been staying at the Hotel Bel-Air for over a month while campaigning, contradicting his previous statements about living in an Airstream trailer after losing his home in the Palisades Fire. Pratt responded by blaming Mayor Karen Bass for the fires and questioning why critics focus on his housing rather than his policy platform.
