A woman who gained internet fame for nodding and giving President Donald Trump the thumbs up sign during his Miami town hall on Thursday night could have used the free airtime two years ago — because she was running for Congress as a pro-Trump candidate.
Mayra Joli, an immigration attorney and pro-Trump activist who once declared herself Miami’s “master of selfies” during her 2018 campaign, was seated behind the president during his hour-long town hall. After the event, she greeted the president, according to a video posted to her Facebook page.
“We have your back! You see, you see you are the best,” Joli said to Trump shortly after the event finished.
“Where are you from?” Trump replied.
“I’m from the Dominican Republic, but I’m American, I’m an American,” Joli said.
“Hey, Sammy Sosa?” Trump said, referring to the Dominican-born former Chicago Cubs baseball player while mimicking a baseball swing.
Joli informed Trump that Sosa endorsed her 2018 congressional race, where she garnered 2.5% of the vote as an independent in Florida’s 27th Congressional District. Democrat Donna Shalala won the 2018 race over Joli and Republican Maria Elvira Salazar.
“I appreciate all the support,” Trump said.
Another attendee next to Joli shouted “Brazilians for Trump” in Joli’s video.

Good for her!
Very nice. I like positive stories like this.
Earlier tonight on Fox News @ Night with Shannon Bream, Shannon said leftists were frantically trying to find out who she was so they could dox her.
They succeeded.
Miami Herald says that Nodding Lady is a Trumpkin who ran for Congress and they're doing a story on her.

This proves Savanna Guthrie was biased in favor of Trump. She didn’t shoot her on sight./s
Oh goodness, somebody who is pro Trump is pro Trump? Scandalous! /s

Ahem! Gentlemen, I can’t believe I have to point this out:
PIC VIOLATION.
I smell a NBC setup on this one. Can’t figure it out just yet but I think her placement behind Trump and her actions were intentional so they could spin something from it. Just can’t figure out their angle yet. Rats will rat. It’s what they do.
They succeeded.
Libs are pissed off all to hell that this supporter was allowed to sit right behind the President and in the camera shot yet think it's totally ok that the moderator (and supposed host) was sitting 10 feet away and badgering the President with nonsense remarks.
Got it
You might be right.
I don't think that sitting behind the President, in full view of the TV audience all night, is an accidental placement.
If it was happenstance, nbc really screwed the pooch.
I can’t wait to watch how morning Joe and Mika are going to spin this.
” leftists were frantically trying to find out who she was so they could dox her.”
I wonder if the evil ever will leave the souls of the leftists, and one day they’ll wake up and see/remember all they’ve done. Normal people don’t do these things, so there are spiritual (not in a good way) entities guiding them. Will they be embarrassed?
Or they just saw an expressive minority woman and thought there was no way she would be a Trump supporter. I mean, very many in the Left are both racist and dumb like that so....
How the heck did NBC actually allow a Trump supporter within blocks of that place?
Remarkable.
Fake news found this women
Fake news cannot find Stephan Halper
Fake news cannot figure out why the DOJ is sitting on Hunter’s laptop
The miami rag paper should have used its time and resources to dig up dirt on biden, not to go back and research this woman.
“Woman who nodded, gave thumbs up behind Trump in Miami ran pro-Trump campaign in 2018”
So What? Why is this a story unless they thought she might have been paid to pretend to be pro-Trump.
