While it may not have worked out for Spencer Pratt, Mauricio Umansky says he might throw his hat in the ring to be mayor of Los Angeles … somewhere down the line.
Kyle Richards‘ ex thinks he could have what it takes to “make L.A. great again” … adding himself to the growing list of reality TV stars attempting to hold political office … in town and beyond.
Mauricio said on Monday’s episode of the “Money Rehab” podcast … “I’m not running for mayor yet. I never said never.”
He tells host Nicole Lapin he’s “thought about it a lot,” but doesn’t think now is the right time.

Mauricio feels politics is “so extremist” at the moment … and he reveals he’s a registered independent.
And while he says his platform would be all about “finding balance and finding that middle,” he did note that he’s “more on the Republican side” … at least financially.
Mauricio pitched a focus on Reaganomics during his hypothetical stint in office, explaining … “We’ve lost so much of Hollywood. We need to give Hollywood incentives.”
He also says the city’s tourism will suffer if people stop filming movies and TV shows out here … because people want a glimpse of how the magic is made.
The way Mauricio sees it … running against the Democrats would be an uphill battle, claiming they make “unsustainable” promises to win elections.
It’ll be interesting to see if Mauricio could win over voters … or if they’ve had enough of celebrity candidates … if he ever acts on this.
