Wonder Woman mirrors Captain America's hope and liberty for the DC Universe. She is not American, but her stance is pro-American because she was conceived before the US entered World War II.

The book confirmed this.DC Universe: DecisionsThis document showed who voted for whom in the election. Wonder Woman supported the Republican Party after the candidate's speech convinced her.

We are not a nation of warriors, first and foremost—and never by choice. We are farmers, shop owners, designers, truck drivers, and everything else. But we rise when duty calls. Always. No matter how soft we seem sometimes. That is the America you should know and love, like I do: hesitant to fight, but a fierce ally once we go to war. Always show compassion to those we defeat. If we have strayed from that path recently, help us find our way back. That is what I stand for, Wonder Woman, and why I am in this race.
