I mean by what right does California belong to the USA. I mean all they did was roll a wagon onto the land 500 years ago. Who's to say the Danish didn't around the same time too?

(sorry indigenous Californians your righteous and original claim doesn't help me make my point)

    I think the Spanish were here first. And then it was part of Mexico…

    Ah I see, you were thinking the sarcastic response to trumps factually inaccurate statement should be factually accurate. Got it.

    I meant that I was being sarcastic in my first post, not you. I was copying what Trump said about Greenland and Denmark landing a boat there and applying it to california to try to show how ridiculous his position is. I was not trying to be factually accurate. I was trying to poke fun at him. It seems it was either not as obvious as I thought or just a bad joke.
