Public figures in Denmark responded to US President Donald Trump's recent statements about his desire to buy Greenland, initiative to buy California. Danish activists have registered a petition at the Denmarkification online resource, which is offered to buy Denmark for $ 1 trillion.
According to the petition, this amount equal to 200 thousand Danish crowns for each inhabitant of the country is an opportunity for Denmark to get "more sun, palm trees and roller skates." Activists believe that the United States can be ready to sell California, as President Trump has repeatedly criticized this state, calling it "the most pretty" in America. The petition suggests that the purchase will be made using a special delegation, which will include Lego executives and actors of the popular Borgen series. The campaign initiators say that under the terms of the agreement, California will become a "new Denmark", and Los Angeles will be renamed "LØS ångles". In addition, it is planned that new sanitary standards will appear in Hollywood, and bicycle paths will be built in Beverly Hills. "Miss a few latte, and you are in gold," the petition authors joke, hinting that the cost of buying staff should not be big for the Danes. They also point out that under such conditions, Disneyland will be renamed to Hans Christians Andersenland, and Mickey Mouse will appear in Viking helmet.
At the time of February 10, the petition collected 198,284 signatures, and the campaign initiators hope to further support this idea. They point out that if President Trump really wants to sell some of the United States, then he can do it without taking into account the will of the citizens, as "it has not stopped it earlier."
