—Defense One

Someone ran the numbers of Trump's suggested border moat with various reptiles, and came up with, "$2.5 billion in set-up costs, plus annual operating costs of $1.8 billion."

By comparison, the F-35 is expected to cost US$1.508 trillion through 2070, 64 years, or about $23½ billion a year.

Personally, I want Sharks with frikken lasers, or at least some ill-tempered mutated sea bass.
