Reality TV star Spencer Pratt has revealed plans to implement a three-week 'grace period' to warn criminals that he will crack down on everything if elected mayor of Los Angeles.
The former reality TV villain launched n fierce campaign that some believe has a chance of defeating both incumbent Democrat Mayor Karen Bass and leftist Nithya Raman have surged in recent weeks
Speaking on the All In podcast to hammer home his message that the city of angels is 'worth saving,' he suggested that his mayoralty will begin with a brief reprieve for those committing crimes and the homeless.
'My plan, the first three weeks, signs up across the city: no more nakedness, no more drug use, no more robbing, no worse, no more dog abuse,' he said.
He says that his team will then go around and warn everyone that 'you got three more weeks of this, clock's ticking.'
Pratt believes this will show those propagating crime in the city that 'there's a mayor in town' and even make some of the troublemakers leave.
'After that, once we start enforcing the laws: boom! Streets will be back,' he promised.
He also suggested that he would bring in the Centers for Disease Control to wade out the 'medieval diseases' living in LA's homeless encampments.
'They're not swabbing these encampments. People are just living in feces and dogs burning, we need these streets clean,' Pratt said.
He added a reference to someone he described as a 'famous police chief' by saying that 'once you start putting handcuffs on people, see how many people leave.'
'This idea that if you let everyone do drugs and let the criminals do what they want... they're gonna' do that!'
The Daily Mail has reached out to Mayor Bass and Councilmember Raman for comment.
The 42-year-old has overtaken LA City Councilwoman Nithya Raman this week after eviscerating her on the debate stage, the latest odds reveal.
Pratt launched his campaign after becoming a vocal critic of Bass's tenure as mayor, in particular after his $3.8 million home burned down in the LA wildfires in January last year.
The market gives Pratt a 28 percent chance of capturing the mayor's office compared to Raman's 20 percent, with incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in the lead on 48 percent.
Voters are just weeks away from casting their ballots on June 2, and Pratt appears to have timed his campaign blitz just in time, with his odds more than doubling in the past month.
