The parallels are eerily similar. Especially the way she wants to bring the young Jedi to heel.
We have watched her career with great interest. With her, there is no civility, only politics.
If she wins, I'll bet this will be her acceptance speech: "It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy. I love the Republic. Once this crisis has abated, I will lay down the powers you have given me!"
