Why can't America be like Denmark?
Liberia has the same constitution as America. Liberia is an s*hole country. Honduras has the same constitution as Denmark. Honduras is an s*hole country.
When liberal progressives say they want us to be like Denmark, they are dog whistling about white supremacy. That's what separates America from Denmark. But the plan isn't to make us like Demnark. The plan is to make us like Brazil or China.
Liberals are useful idiots for the wealthy. Socialism is something advocated by wealthy corporations who want government contracts and wars, cheap money, bailouts, etc... Socialism is the vanguard of the third world. It's African and Central American banana republics. You can see it on a local level. For instance, look at wealth inequality in the most liberal cities like DC LA and NYC where it is highest.
