    Your political opinion aside, which Politican was the most like Palpatine’s facade as a Chancellor during the CW? I always thought he portrayed himself as a Churchill like Figure

    *Please note that this is not Politics bite because Palpatine as a Chancellor portrayed himself as a good leader, not the evil emperor he actually was.

    Nixon was the biggest inspiration for Palpatine as explicitly stated by George, but as for his facade he puts up I would say it’s probably an FDR.

    at least for American politicians. He was long tenured. He was president during a war. He would probably do something like a fire side chat:

    his next thread "which politician did Palpatine most dress like?" he could add eight words :p


    but in all seriousness, Churchill is a good answer,

    he seems a Tony Blair type to me though :p
