Khloé Kardashian recently received backlash from liberals for calling Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass a “joke” in response to the city’s fire department budget cuts.
The controversial remark followed devastating wildfires in the area, which led to significant damage. Critics on X (formerly Twitter) pointed out Kardashian’s quick judgment of Bass, while questioning her silence on other public figures.
One critic wrote, “It’s interesting how Khloé Elon Musk Kardashian has been very quick to call Mayor Karen Bass ‘A JOKE’ but had no smoke for [Donald] Trump, JD Vance, or Elon [Musk] during this past presidential election.”
Critics point out Kardashian’s selective political criticism
Many liberals were frustrated by Kardashian’s focus on Mayor Bass, while some questioned her political stance.
Another comment read, “Khloé got some nerve calling the mayor of LA a joke when she literally has Tristan Thompson as a [baby daddy].” This remark referred to Kardashian’s on-again, off-again relationship with Thompson, the father of her two children, True and Tatum.
