A satirical petition seeking to raise a trillion dollars for Denmark to purchase California has gathered over 200,000 signatures.

The petition says, “Have you ever looked at a map and thought, ‘You know what Denmark needs? More sunshine, palm trees, and roller skates.’ Well, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make that dream a reality.” 

“Let’s buy California from Donald Trump! Yes, you heard that right. California could be ours, and we need your help to make it happen.”

The petition emerged in response to the U.S. president's renewed push to gain control over Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory under Denmark.

It satirically highlights several potential benefits for Denmark if it were to acquire California, such as better weather, a steady supply of avocados, and a stronger position in the tech industry.

“Gaining an extra bunch of Tech bros? Great! It is what every democracy needs,” the petition said, adding that Denmark would be able to “protect the free world” and rename Disneyland “Hans Christian Andersenland.”

“Mickey Mouse in a Viking helmet? Yes, please,” it said.

All that's left is to gather the $1 trillion crowdfunding target, “give or take a few billion,” and deploy “our bestest negotiators – Lego executives and the cast of Borgen.”

“California will become New Denmark. Los Angeles? More like Løs Ångeles,” the petition reads. “We’ll bring hygge to Hollywood, bike lanes to Beverly Hills, and organic smørrebrød to every street corner. Rule of law, universal health care and fact-based politics might apply.”

Trump, who assumed office on January 20, has called U.S. control over Greenland an "absolute necessity."

Officials from both Greenland and Denmark have firmly opposed Trump's renewed interest in acquiring the island. However, several Danish officials have told CNN that the president is now more determined about the idea than during his first term.

Despite these rejections, speculation surrounding Greenland's independence movement has reignited discussions about its future.
