#Trump: The #war on #Iran will take maybe "four to five weeks".

Also #Trump: We need 200 billion $ for the war.

So let's do the math: 5 weeks * 7 days/week * 2bn$/day = 70bn$
Almost the same as 200bn!

@otheorange_tag Was listening to some Tom Lehrer c.1965 (my parents introduced me to his songs when I was young, thankfully 😎). I thought I’d send you “New Math” 🧮 because there is always math, no matter what they said 😋 #AlternativeMaths 😜 (I bet you know this one!) 🎶
