Yeah it can't make Star Wars any worse.
Besides it can't get more stupid than Palpatine in RoS so might as well.

What would the reaction be to making Darth Jar Jar canon?

I was always on board for this and with Rise of Skywalker setting the bar so low, what do you have to lose?
Palpatine announced his return in Fortnite.

It would have been a cool reveal in Clones and then thrown away when Anakin cut his head off in Sith. No, before you even say it, Doku died because Lucas didn't need him anymore. He was pointless in that story, and Doku was Darth Jar Jar, if you believe the theories. Only Sheev and Vader could survive the prequels. At least that was his thought at the time. Now we know fucking everyone survived, becuase fuck you, tv shows.
It would be a very dumb thing to do...and I'd love it.
Long past time Star Wars put the opera back in "space opera" and just threw a bunch of crazy, dramatic twists at us.

They should have done it in the prequel trilogy. Now doing it would be forced, but they already scrapped any semblance of good writing with rise of Skywalker, so to hell with it, why not.
Not even an all-time great Sith lord would allow themselves to take a nut shot like he did in order to maintain cover.
Pretty sure the "clown" character ending up being the villain pulling the strings was a twist in some other sci fi thing but I can't remember what it was.
I'd love to see how they would try to make Jar Jar look and sound menacing, it would be a hell of a task.

Gotta love how Jar Jar was such a shit and offensive character that even 20 years later we still have people trying to justify it will batshit fan theories.
Jar Jar would've been a far more satisfying villain than Snoke and Palpatine, so why not. The Darth Jar Jar theory is better than most of what we've gotten out of the franchise since it was written.
Imagine if he just dropped the accent and had a menacing voice out of the blue with no warning.
You would hear about how much fans have always loved Jar Jar, and how they always knew it. I think it would go over fairly well, because people want their Star Wars trivia knowledge to be rewarded.
Oooh maybe British?*shivers*
This. It's a funny running gag but as an actual story idea it's garbage.
