Danes launch bid to 'buy California' and turn Disney World into Hans Christian Andersenland in retaliation for Donald Trump's Greenland threats

By ELENA SALVONI

Danish campaigners are proposing to buy California from the United States and turn it into a territory of Denmark in response to Donald Trump's bid to acquire Greenland.

The 'Denmarkification' campaign says it seeks to crowdfund $1trillion to purchase the US state, after which it plans to instill it with Danish values and make the most of its sunny weather and resources.

President Trump has repeatedly expressed an interest in making Greenland - an autonomous territory of Denmark - part of the US, citing its strategic importance and mineral wealth. He has not ruled out using military or economic power to persuade the EU member to hand it over.

Without mentioning Trump's threats, the Denmarkification website states its ambitions in similar terms to those used by the Republican - vowing, for example, to 'make California great again'.

The campaign 'to help Denmark buy California - because why not?' was started by Xavier Dutoit and its online petition has racked up some 200,000 signatures in a matter of hours.

Promises include renaming the state 'New Denmark' and turning its Disney resort into 'Hans Christian Andersenland' - complete with a Viking helmet-wearing Mickey Mouse.

Bosses from Danish toy giant Lego would run talks between the US and Denmark, Dutoit told Politico, because 'dealing with children throwing tantrums over missing bricks has made them experts in negotiation.'

The page argues that Trump may in fact welcome the sale of the Golden State, saying that he 'isn’t exactly California’s biggest fan' and pointing out that he has feuded with Californian leaders - the likes of Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris - for years.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Why can't we just give California to Denmark?

I think a lot of people would love that. Make it even more Eurocentric to piss the La Raza crowd off.

Throw in a couple of T-shirts, and they got a deal.

So....when they sell hats to the tourists, will they keep the ears, or just use horns?

It would certainly make California more popular, while the Danes only allow medicinal marijuana, you can buy cocaine OTC.
