Spencer Pratt, the former Republican candidate for Los Angeles mayor, is now having a blast pointing out that few people can apparently tell the difference between two MS NOW anchors, specifically Jacob Soboroff and the more well-known Rachel Maddow.
On Sunday, Pratt posted a video clip of Soboroff interviewing Democrat Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass as she explained she would not attend a congressional inquiry into the city’s fires, noting: “I cannot attend due to my schedule.”
Pratt said Sunday: “Incredible. Rachel Maddow didn’t push back on Karen Bass AT ALL as she calls the Palisades Fire investigation a waste of time & resources. Lady … 6K homes burned, hundreds of people died, and you illegally deleted all of your messages. Integrity is dead.”
Monday morning, Pratt posted a follow-up message, indicating: “The complete absence of anyone pointing out that this isn’t Rachel Maddow, but – in fact – Jacob Soboroff, is the funniest thing ever.”

Bass had elaborated during the discussion with Soboroff, “They also asked for a ton of documents.”
“When they pile investigations on you, you can imagine how much money is being wasted, spent, because you have to have attorneys, you have other have staff that go through and send them document after document. I served there. I know what this dog-and-pony show is.”
But the similar appearance between Soboroff and Maddow that has people talking, with numerous comments responding to Pratt:

“Oh I thought it was Maddow with makeup.”
“Why do all the male anchors on MSNOW, or whatever they are calling themselves today, look like Rachel Maddow before the transition? [Joe] Scarborough also looks like pre-transition Maddow.”
“May as well been Rachel Maddow. Same look, same lame approved line of questioning. No mention of commie background or multiple failings.”
“I noticed, because he looks more feminine than Maddow.”
“Still pretty confident that’s Rachel Maddow, man.”
“Pretty sure that is the twink Chris Hayes.”
“Understandable – they use the same barber. And optometrist.”
“That’s Mark Cuban though.”
Common mistake. Mark Cuban wears glasses and is more feminine. pic.twitter.com/ZtTnKyZ815

“It’s just late stage liberalism. That’s how they all look at this point.”
“Spencer, do you think we’re dumb? That IS Rachel Maddow 😆 you cannot tell me otherwise.”
