I like how this underscores what a joke they think Trump is.
I hope they change the name to Hyggewood
Yes please. If you could finalize the deal before April 15 that would be very helpful.
What's happening on April 15?
Tax day….
oh, I'm not american so I don't know your tax days.
they offered to buy Washington DC but it seems Russia beat them to it.
With a pee room and some shady video
slow claps
Well done sir, well done.
Hygge me baby
gettin' Hygge with it!
Yes! California native here. We accept.
$1 is a pretty good deal.
They should have charged, honestly.
Don't threaten me with a good time
EU citizenship with no hassle?
Hell yes!
No hassle? I think you severely underestimate the effort required to learn Danish.
Wouldn't be the first bilingual EU country.
Humoring the situation, I imagine English would be an accepted official language of the region lol
Yes, sign me up. I'm ready. Right now. Seriously. Do they want money?
This would be the biggest mass migration to California since the last one.
Can they buy oregon and Washington too?
As a Cali expat in Washington I approve of this.
Don't forget Colorado, we have lots of drugs!
As a Coloradoan, I approve of being sold to Denmark.
I'm sure we could work out a buy 2 get 1 free deal

Can I offer you some hygge in these trying times?
The sheer absurdity of this "news" piece perfectly encapsulates the late-stage capitalism circus we’re trapped in. A real estate fire sale of cultural landmarks? Only in a world where oligarchs treat nations like Monopoly properties and influencers mistake clickbait for journalism. Hollywood’s already a hollowed-out shell of corporate algorithms—selling it to Denmark would at least spare us another superhero reboot.
Propaganda outlets peddling geopolitical fanfiction while actual democracies crumble? Classic misdirection. Meanwhile, the same clowns who’d auction Yellowstone to Saudi princes for a tax break are now cosplaying as statesmen. It’s not satire anymore—it’s a diagnostic manual for civilizational collapse.
Social media’s algorithmic abyss keeps amplifying this narcissistic delirium until reality itself becomes a glitchy deepfake. Unplug the servers before someone Tweets Greenland into the ocean.

Darn, I was kind of hoping for a viking raid of Mar-a-Lago followed by some pillaging up and down the gulf coast. Get some pirates back in the Caribbean and rename the Gulf to something even more obnoxious.
Well, the vikings reached the east coast of what is now Canada in around the year 1,000, but they were Norwegians, not Danes. They never got any further than New Brunswick, but who knows, if they visited Florida perhaps they would have stayed...
They never got any further than New Brunswick
New Brunswick can do that to ya. You have to be ready for it.

Please! Please do it!
I, for one, welcome our new Viking overlords."
Ok so the Danes get the west, Canada gets the north, Mexico gets as much of the south as they want, and the rest can be The United States Of Trump until it gets destroyed
Can you give some back to the First Nations people?
All the USofT will be First Nations Land after the civil war.
I wish. Unfortunately none of the governments staking claims give a shit about them.
Sorry, we're still only breaking treaties.
