A campaign in Denmark has gained traction online, jokingly proposing the “purchase” of California in response to Donald Trump’s past idea of acquiring Greenland. The petition, which has drawn significant attention, frames the concept as a tongue-in-cheek expansion, citing sunshine, tech industry appeal, and even a playful suggestion to rename Disneyland after Hans Christian Andersen.
The campaign includes exaggerated elements, such as a trillion-dollar fundraising goal and large hypothetical contributions from citizens, reinforcing its comedic intent. While not serious, it reflects how international audiences responded to the original Greenland proposal, using humor to mirror the idea back at the United States.
