Between Abiy and Aung San Suu Kyi maybe Trump thinks getting a Nobel is a prerequisite to start shooting people?

Most of them would decry steven universe as fascist apologia if they watched it again so the point still stands.

Dooku would have to scramble for an apprentice - he hated Anakin so that's a nonstarter, Ventress would never have her heart in it, Grievous is 95% aluminum and probably not Force-sensitive, and he's too old to start with an actual youngling.

Scoop Savage Opress off of Dathomir, maybe.

He personally and professionally hated Anakin, there's no way Dooku would go to the trouble of making an apprentice out of him.

Dooku's still a committed Sith by that point so his play is probably try to win indepdence for the CIS - easy with the Republic having no clones nor Jedi generals - and begin a Galactic Cold War as part of a new stage in the grand plan.

An arrangement made between said absolute monarchy and Benito Goddamn Mussolini and breaking it would be such a complete headache that the entire Italian political spectrum from the communists to the fascists have been united for 100 years on the idea of never doing that.
