The initiative group in Denmark, Denmarkification, offered to buy California from the States for a trillion dollars against the background of US President Donald Trump’s claims to Greenland, the initiative has already collected almost 200,000 signatures, follows from the proposal posted on the group’s website.

“Let’s buy California from Trump — Denmark’s next big adventure. <…> California could become ours, and we need your help to make that happen. <…> Let’s be honest — Trump is not the biggest fan of California. <…> He has been feuding with its leaders for years. We are sure that he would be willing to give it away for the right price,” follows from the Denmarkification initiative, where one of its sections transliterated in Danish letters means “Make California great again.”

At the same time, there is no information on what kind of initiative group it is and when it was created on their website, as there is no other information except the text of the proposal itself with interactive points of the plan.

The initiative has already collected 198.2 thousand signatures, and the cost of the “deal“, as noted, will amount to one trillion dollars, which is proposed to be raised through crowdfunding — “only 200 thousand Danish crowns” (27.8 thousand dollars) from each Dane. Among the advantages of such a purchase for Denmark, the group highlights the abundance of sunlight in California, the state’s high technology and endless supplies of avocado toast, since California grows 90% of US avocados – for the States, the advantage of the “deal” will be a “lifetime supply of Danish cakes.” In addition, the band promises to bring hugge to Hollywood, bike paths to Beverly Hills, and an organic smurf to every corner.
