If you need a reference tool , try this. FAQ: What is the difference between the long ton, short ton, and metric ton?

Maybe it's like a dollar is really 10 dimes? or, a hundred pennies????? so does this mean Trump will work for us next year for 100 pennies??
How many pennies does it take to make a ton? Or is that Tonne??? I don't think there's any metric in that is there??
