They serve the wishes of the donor class - who can impact them in between elections. For this reason, I think one thing we can be fairly sure of is that Palestinians are likely to pay a heavy price for the most recent choice of US voters.
I think everything else is unpredictable and stands a good chance of being non-linear as the internal conflicts in the US take shape. Just one example: The last Trump administration had John Bolton in a major position, yet the net outcome was a hastening of the global decline of the USA without a major superpower military or nuclear exchange.
