WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s directive to change the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War could cost as much as $2 billion, according to six people with knowledge of the potential cost.

The name change, which must be approved by Congress, would require replacing thousands of signs, placards, letterheads and badges, as well as any other items at U.S. military sites around the world that feature the Department of Defense name, according to two senior Republican congressional staffers, two senior Democratic congressional staffers and two other people briefed on the potential cost.

New department letterhead and signage alone could cost about $1 billion, according to the four senior congressional staffers and one of the people briefed on the potential cost.

One of the biggest contributors to the cost of changing the name would be rewriting digital code for all of the department’s internal and external facing websites, as well as other computer software on classified and unclassified systems, the four senior congressional staffers said.

2. Yeah, it's not like doing a find/replace command in Word.

What an absolutely ridiculous waste of money and effort, just so Trump and Pete Kegbreath can feel like their dicks are a little bigger.

3. I wish they would just haul out their dicks and measure them and put that on record

Really tired of this macho posturing. And spending money on it? After laying off 20% of the federal workforce? So damn stupid.
