Danes make an arrogant offer for California as Trump is looking for Greenland – Irvine Times

The petition asks, “Have you ever looked at a card and thought,” Do you know what Denmark needs? More sun, palm trees and roller skates?

“Well, we have the opportunity for once in life to turn this dream into reality.”

The petition website asked for over 200,000 signatures by mid -morning on Wednesday, for $ 500,000, as well as “one trillion dollars (give or get several billion). This is only 200,000 kroner from each Dane. “

The petition adds: “It is in national interest to encourage the extraordinary heritage of our nation, so California will become new Denmark.”

Although the scheme may be a joke, another very Danish city in southern California is real.

Known as the “Danish capital of America”, Soluang was founded by three immigrants from Denmark in 1911.

The city is popular with tourists who come to its feet for its ABLESKIVER runs, Scandinavian windmills, a main street called “Copenhagen Drive” and, of course, the Hans Christian Andersen Museum to honor the famous Danish author.

The Danish grand pianos have visited several times over the decades.

But in 2019, Mr. Trump defamed a trip to Denmark and said the cancellation was because Prime Minister Met Fredericksen made a “nasty” statement when she rejected his first idea of ​​buying Greenland as absurd. Greenland is a semi-autonomous territory of the US ally-wicked and mineral-rich Arctic Island.

G -n Trump, who is already in his second term, is doubled. Before he took office last month, the US President said he would not rule out the use of military force to occupy the island, calling it vital for US national security.

G -Ja Frederiksen and Mute B Egege, Prime Minister of Greenland, are again opposed to these calls.

“Greenland is for Greenland people. We don’t want to be Danish, we don’t want to be American. We want to be Greenland, “said a press conference together with D -Ja Fredericksen in Copenhagen last month.

US President Donald Trump, Jr., visited Greenland last month and told the citizens, “We’ll treat you well.”

So, the donation decided to channel the previous career of G -N Trump as a real estate developer. The organizers of the petition already have large plans for Disneyland in Southern California.

“We will rename Hans Christian Andersenland. Mickey Mouse in Viking Helm? Yes, please, “the petition says.

Of course, every petition needs some fine print and can be found far at the bottom: “Refusal: This campaign is 100% real … in our dreams.”
