This chapter discusses the recent U.S. election outcomes and their implications for authoritarian regimes globally, with a focus on how political relationships can be unpredictable. It examines American foreign policy's inconsistent approach towards dictators like Iran and Russia, alongside the complex interplay between dissidents and U.S. political dynamics. Insights into the interactions between leaders, the role of psychological manipulation, and the perspectives of dissidents emphasize the need for cohesive strategies against authoritarianism.
