Summary

In response to Trump’s renewed push to buy Greenland, a satirical Danish petition proposes buying California, gathering over 200,000 signatures.

The petition jokes about bringing “hygge” to Hollywood, “bike lanes to Beverly Hills, and organic smørrebrød to every street corner,” while also suggesting that “rule of law, universal healthcare, and fact-based politics might apply,” mocking Trump’s tense relationship with California and its governor, Gavin Newsom.

Meanwhile, Trump’s Greenland ambitions remain serious, with a Republican congressman introducing a bill to buy and rename it “Red, White and Blueland.”

Danish and Greenlandic leaders firmly reject any sale, asserting Greenland’s right to self-determination. The petition aims to crowdfund $1 trillion as a joke.

        Step 1 - lay out white fabric

        Step 2 - mix red, white and blue paint together

        Step 3 - paint a swastica on the new flag

        Mission accomplished
