One problem here; totalitarian regimes tend not to tolerate lots of
initiative in their underlings, which makes preparing for this sort of
fighting somewhat harder.


Why do you assume the US will only fight totalitarian regimes ?

Or that totalitarian regimes can't exist with the suport of the population
- remember that only about 20 % of the worlds population share
our western values.
