Welcome to Political Humor!
Rules:
I once read a Star Wars conspiracy that Jar Jar was the most successful Sith - he does more damage than any of the overt Sith just by being a moron. I think that comparing trump to Jar Jar is a pretty good match
Thanks
I'm convinced that Darth JarJar was canon until the poor reception the character got made George Lucas chicken out, and that the prequel trilogy would've been way better than the one we got if he'd followed through instead.
Fan outrage causes directors to back off and play it safe, making the film worse.
It really is like poetry. It rhymes.
According to the behind the scenes documentary on the making of the prequels, Lucas was surrounded by a bunch of young yes men/fans fawning him and praising that his ideas are great. So his silly ideas were not critiqued and included in the movies. Jar Jar would have been taken more seriously had his character design was not silly. If Darth Jar Jar was meant to be canon, Lucas was trying to make a Kaiser Sose out of Jar Jar but failed.
It's a shame that the prequels was badly written because there are plenty of interesting ideas and social commentary, and they are especially relevant now considering where the world is heading. I hadn't thought toxic masculinity and loniless could lead to real life social impact and underestimating it was precisely what the prequels were saying, but Lucas badly conveyed the themes and message.
I'm saying he absolutely is a russian asset. I said what I said.
I think their compromat may have faded a bit now that he no longer needs their money and is less politically vulnerable.
They can release the tape of Russian 15 year olds pissing on him, and what's going to happen at this point? Trump is also more confident that he can just diffuse it by saying "AI".
Especially with the number of Republicans who have indicated that child rape isn't a deal breaker
Damn the US economy has nice knees.

Why aren't you saying it? It's been proven over and over.
The problem is that the major indicators used to determine a good economy are all doing fine. The stock market has jumped tremendously over the last couple of years, even with tariffs, and spending is up.
Granted, most of the spending is thanks to the 1%, and it's just seven companies propping up the US economy. The working poor and middle class are in a recession and have been since at least 2020.
It's a house of cards waiting for a passing breeze to blow it all over.
I try to tell anyone I can IRL that the stock market is not the economy
