Throw in S AZ and it’s a deal.

Love the Danes but I think they would have to take out a huge loan to make it happen. Using 2022 figures Denmark's GDP was $395B while the Bay Area alone was $732B, LA was $1.236T and California overall was $3.6T. I'm not against it but they're going to have to put more than 10% down to qualify.

I am pretty sure this is a sarcastic joke aimed at making a fool of DJT.

Not that he requires anyone's assistance, of course.

Of course but that doesn't necessarily make it a bad idea. Just the increase in available breakfast pastries alone would make it worthwhile.

They’re crowdfunding.

A Go Fund Me (GoFM) for California and a GoFU for Donald Trump. Sounds fine to me.

Could always become the 11th Province, too :)

Okay, but you have to accept immigrants from the remaining bits of the USA or no deal

Doesn't take that many sigs to get a ballot referendum.

Well dang, this brings a whole new meaning to "pay or play."

darwinwoodka.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yup let's go

As a native Californian, heck yeah.

janicessmith.bsky.social•21 days ago

I've lived in California for 41 years and I would be all up for it!

Buy Nevada too as a twofer.

TAKE OREGON WITH YOU!!!

I was skeptical until I got to the lifetime supply of Danish pastries. It's impossible to resist a successful universalist welfare state when they throw in limitless kringle and cardamom buns!
