I should moving to Denmark because I’m part of Denmark so fuck America!!!!
Take the whole west coast. OR and WA are sick of this BS too. Hell, take HI as well!
Can they buy Arkansas instead? We need a state government that respects the bodily autonomy of women, and I'd appreciate operating under Danish national law rather than a federal government run by Trump.
I'm not sure you we should be subjecting Denmark to the people of Arkansas
a package of benefits that reads like a parody of Nordic governance. The petition promises “rule of law, universal health care, and fact-based politics”
That’s not even a parody, just daily life in the nordics contrasted with the US.
I would be inclined to listen to their trade offers of California. I would also offer Minnesota to Canada for a future draft pick.........
We'd like Hawaii for a First Round Pick in 2026 and a Second Round Pick in 2027
I'm not sure about the countries and what they do. Is Norway running Denmark? Will this finally get trump the Holland Peace Prize? /s
I as an Asian support this deal. Please go ahead with it.
Count me in for being absorbed by Denmark!
That was LAST YEAR!
I was about to say, "past interest"!? How naïve the article writer was a year ago...
Yup. Just saw articles from Feb 2025.
Good thing is they're up to 285k now!
I think it's psychologically important for Denmark to own California
Why is it even part of the US? Just because some ships have been landed there? Well, danish has landed there too.
They should just sail a ship into Los Angeles and plant their flag.
It's psychologically important for me to, the change would be of immense psychological benefit to me.
As a spokesperson for CA citizens, we'll take it! Please and thank you.
Colorado has introduced a buy one get one free deal with California!
Only if they take Washington and Oregon too.
As a WA state resident, we require inclusion in the deal. In fact, you buy 1 California and receive a complimentary WA state for free! Act now, and receive a special-one-time Oregon while supplies last!
If it were up to me Canada would buy us. I heard their getting China EVs soon.
No, too many Americans, we'd be a minority in our own country. I think we'd all be happy to visit Washington, Oregon, and California again and more often than before if it didn't require travelling to the US though.
What if we only let the non Tesla drivers stay and purge the Tesla drivers from Washington? It would be a good filter and less people. Deal?
An overland route between Mexico and Canada that doesn't go through the US, that could be interesting.
I, for one, welcome our new Danish overlords!
Oh damn, don't tease me with a good time. I'm not a rich man, but I'd make a donation to help pay for the purchase.
I will gladly move to California ahead of the purchase.
Quite honestly Trump could tout this as a win. Huge buyout and they get rid of a bunch of uppity liberals.
All sales of California include a complementary Washington State, and yes, it's mandatory.
Oregon and Hawaii too
Texas or Florida would have been a much more appropriate choice. Trump doesn't even like California.
yea but I'm sure it's worth more than most states
No one wants to buy Florida.
Let's just push Florida into the Gulf
I don't know. Is there a country of Shreks out there somewhere? They might want to buy the thing.
Maybe he'll just give it away then
Hey listen: California is vital for Denmark's security, for some reason. Also, the Danish prime minister was snubbed for the Nobel Peace Prize, so that means that they're going to invade us if we don't comply with the sale.
Don’t tempt us with a good time.
Also, can you take MA too? We have lots of neat bioscience stuff, tons of universities, and a similar dislike of orangeboi.
Canada wants to buy Minnesota. They seem like our kind of people.
Shit, wait for me to get there first!
Frankly, I'd like to move to Denmark or Greenland, but they'd probably be understandably suspicious of me.
