Oh my God.
I just had a terrible thought.
Palpatine in TROS is about Trump. Evil came back up from nowhere but don’t worry because “there are more of us.”
I 100% believe this, most people assumed TFA, RO, and TLJ were anti-Trump anyway, so they leaned into it here (see also “We go together” aka “Stronger together”).
That’s not surprising, I think I recall seeing something where Bob Iger really doesn’t like Trump.
I’d think it more a JJ thing. I believe Iger shut down speculation that RO was political.
Yeah I never really got any messages like that out of RO.
