Jimmy Kimmel Can Hardly Believe the Reality of L.A.’s Mayoral Race

Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
‘A Very L.A. Race for Mayor’
The Los Angeles mayoral race will take place on June 2, with Mayor Karen Bass seeking a second term.
Jimmy Kimmel, a Los Angeles resident, called it “a very L.A. race for mayor,” with the former reality show star Spencer Pratt currently polling in second place.
“His profession is to be the screaming jerk on reality shows,” Kimmel said of Pratt, likening the mayoral candidate’s path from television stardom to political office to that of President Trump.
“Now, the difference between Donald Trump and this guy is, Donald Trump actually had a job before he was on a reality show. He wasn’t good at the job. He got all the money for it from his dad. The only thing he was good at was promoting himself, and it turned out that was enough. And, as a result, we are going to have to spend the next three decades digging out of this giant hole he put us in. But this hole now has given birth to Spencer Pratt, who is running for mayor.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
