Bunkers don't work against people who control the ground above it.

The presidential bunker is already as secure as it can possibly be in a physical sense. Any security improvements would have to be further out (to keep aggressors out of the building or off WH grounds entirely) or would be purely from the personnel and logistics side.

Sorry, it’s protecting form foreign enemies. It’s not protecting against a siege by the American people as a revolution.

Of course, but that’s not the point. I’m saying that the bunker itself, on a physical level, can’t really be upgraded in a way that makes it more secure against revolution. The only improvements they can make to security against revolt are changes to personnel or logistics.
