    Didn’t miss it at all. Your talking point ignores the reality.

    If the issue is succession and we pick the US, you have this potential issue every 4 years on the presidential level. You have the same issue on the house and senate level. You have a worse issue on the supreme Court.

    If the leaders change in 4 years, you’re equally screwed as if your dictator changed in 4 years. However a dictator generally is in power for decades or many decades. So really, you’ve shown the opposite. It is better to be in a stable dictatorship because the succession unknown is less often.
