Only if they have enough agency to do so. Biden, Pelosi, McConnell, and most of the others still do for now but they are all gonna hold on until they’re Feinstein and don’t even remember that there is a big red button they could order someone to push.

It's just a submarine looking (and sized) tank than can rumble along at depths of up to 10 metres below surface.

Oh yeah it's also fully electric powered so you might want a few 440 volt shore power charging cables so you can juice it up overnight.
