‘Make America Go Away’ caps become symbol of Danish, Greenlandic protest against Trump's Greenland remarks
Red 'Make America Go Away' caps parodying MAGA have surged in Denmark and Greenland, worn at protests opposing President Trump's threat to seize Greenland territory.
Overview
Jesper Rabe Tonnesen, a Copenhagen vintage store owner, designed 'Make America Go Away' caps; early sales were slow but demand surged after the Trump administration's rhetoric toward Greenland.
Protesters in Copenhagen and on social media wore the red parody caps at a weekend rally, waving Danish and Greenlandic flags and carrying signs mocking U.S. claims over the territory.
European governments publicly backed Denmark and Greenland, saying threats undermine Arctic security and western alliances amid concerns over U.S. interest in Greenland.
Protesters described the demonstration as lighthearted yet serious, saying the hats communicate solidarity with Greenlanders facing unacceptable threats of seizure or invasion.
Variants like 'Nu det NUUK!' and other spoofs, plus slogans such as 'Make America Smart Again', spread online, turning the hats into a symbol of defiance.
