The Brief
•
• The 'Denmarkification' campaign says it seeks to crowdfund $1trillion to purchase the U.S. state.
• Promises include renaming California 'New Denmark' and turning Disneyland into ‘Hans Christian Andersenland.’
• President Trump has repeatedly expressed an interest in making Greenland - an autonomous territory of Denmark - part of the US
LOS ANGELES - Thousands of Danish people have signed a "Denmarkification" petition to buy California from the U.S. in response to President Donald Trump's bid to acquire Greenland.
The online petition has garnered nearly 200,000 signatures from the Scandinavian country home to nearly 6 million people.
"Los Angeles? More like Løs Ångeles," the petition reads.
"Have you ever looked at a map and thought, 'You know what Denmark needs? More sunshine, palm trees, and roller skates.' Well, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make that dream a reality," the campaign website reads. "Let's buy California from Donald Trump!"
The petition claims its crowdfunding goal is $1 trillion — "give or take a few billion."
Greenland, home to a large U.S. military base, is an autonomous territory of Denmark, a longtime U.S. ally and a founding member of NATO. Trump cast doubts on the legitimacy of Denmark’s claim to Greenland.
Apparently there are five major incentives for Danes to sign the petition: sunshine, tech, avocado toast, protecting the free world, and of course - Disneyland, which the petition calls to rename "Hans Christian Andersenland."
"Mickey Mouse in a Viking helmet? Yes, please," the petition reads.

"Trump isn’t exactly California’s biggest fan. He’s called it 'the most ruined state in the Union' and has feuded with its leaders for years. We’re pretty sure he’d be willing to part with it for the right price."
Before taking office for his second term on Jan. 20, Trump said he would not rule out the use of military force to seize control of the Panama Canal and Greenland, as he declared U.S. control of both to be vital to American national security.
Trump left open the use of the American military to secure both territories. Trump’s intention marks a rejection of decades of U.S. policy that has prioritized self-determination over territorial expansion.

Your terms are acceptable.

Let’s go to contract. You’re keeping Newsom, yes?

How about we swap California for Greenland?
California is such a quagmire. It claims to be the six largest economy, but it’s a net drag on the US due to all of the welfare payments, homelessness and illegals. I’d say good riddance

Denmark has no bloody idea the horrible fate that will inevitably befall the Danish if they were to do this.

Sold. No take backs.

It’s refreshing to see some people know the proper way to respond to being trolled.

They can have it.
