The prequels make a whole lot more sense when you realize that JarJar was in fact a Sith master extraordinaire, as evidenced by his knack for being around major galactic-political events and killing vast numbers of opponents via the Jedi equivalent of “drunken Kung Fu”. This is explored & explained in ridiculous detail elsewhere, easily searched for.
The prequels only make sense if Jar Jar is the prime villain, Darth Sidious in disguise.
He has way too much stupid luck for it to be otherwise.
