Washington, Mar 5 (IANS): A Mexican-American woman has attracted about 70,000 followers on her social media accounts, which she created in support of President Donald Trump as he was "a needed leader to end the destruction of the US".

Paloma Zuniga, who has dual US-Mexican citizenship, is considered an "influencer" by the Republican Party and therefore has been an invited as a guest at numerous events such as the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) held last week here, reports Efe news.

"I am against the way they are destroying the US and I've been watching it for 12 years. I was already realising what the country has been doing for a long time, so when Trump said he was running for President, I thought: 'Finally, someone who also sees it and now speaks about it'," Zuniga said.

She has over 60,000 followers on Facebook and several thousand more on Instagram and Twitter, a YouTube channel and a personal website where she spreads her "conspiracy theories" about who is "destroying" the US, a phenomenon she attributes to "Hispanics".

"They are taking over places like California where they do not speak English!" She said after claiming that "cities no longer work as designed. We Hispanics arrived and trampled the principles and values of the United States and we don't care".

Zuniga has said that the Latino community does not respect the US because "they think it's a business zone where Americans are stupid and they can take advantage of them".

She was born in Mexico City and emigrated legally to the US at the age of eight when her mother became a widow and married an American. As an adult, she decided to return to Mexico because "it's cheaper" and she has business there, several houses and takes care of "many dogs".

Zuniga has claimed that major media networks in Mexico and the US - such as Televisa, The New York Times and The Washington Post - are against her, but at the same time that helps her boost her platforms.

He popularity among political activists at CPAC was such that, without hesitation, she repeatedly dared to interrupt any conversation to greet and pass on her contact card, which is illustrated with a photograph of her posing on the side of a portion of the US-Mexico border wall that has already been built.
