Spencer Pratt blasted Hannah Einbinder on X after the "Hacks" actor urged voters to resist his Los Angeles mayoral bid and backed rival Nithya Raman.
Einbinder told Variety that Pratt was effectively a Trump-backed candidate and said wealthy Angelenos who "masquerade as Democrats" help power support for him.
Pratt replied that Einbinder was speaking from a red carpet "surrounded by armed security" and said she was insulated from street crime while ordinary residents wanted change.
The exchange lands as Pratt keeps answering celebrity critics, after recent social-media attacks on Lisa Rinna and Chelsea Handler over their dismissals of his candidacy.
A Los Angeles Times poll released Thursday put Karen Bass at 26%, Raman at 25% and Pratt at 22%, underscoring why the celebrity feud is drawing attention.
