Do you know how much our war against ISIS is going to cost you?
When I took high school physics, you always rounded up. So lets round it up to a nice round number. It’s costing us 10 million a day.
Remember, they’re protecting our freedom because if we don’t stop ISIS there, ISIS is loading up. They’re going to load onto those flat-bedded boats and they’re going to come across the ocean.
ISIS could hit us in Maine, they could hit us in Virginia, and they can choose to hit us in Florida. Maybe they’ll circle around, go through the Panama Canal and hit us in LA. An open-ground Normandy type invasion!
Of course I’m being utterly stupid, but I think it’s stupid to be spending 10 million dollars a day, halfway around the world, with something that has no bearing on my life at all.
