Trump did not say "They are dirty".

This rudeness against Asian women stated by Trump during Covid when he declared "Covid came from China and they are 'dirty'. For him and 90% of non city Americans all Asians are Chinese...

 

There's one great thing at US immigration. If treated rudely say; "I want to speak to your supervisor!"

 

That gets their attention and attitude changes immediately.... they won't take a risk being questioned.

So much garbage and ill-informed advice in one post!

Just curious,

 

If she's your girlfriend why is she going to stay in a hotel for the first few days?

It's all in the OP.

She got in. No problems. Thanks everyone. 

Would have been nice if you had posted how the entry procedure went and what, if any, questions she was asked and how she responded to them.

Are you going to meet her at the airport? Obviously she will have your number and can give this to the immigration office if they ask, Does she have a booked return flight? If her English is poor, you might write her a note to give to immigration (if she is stopped)  explaining all the circumstances and with your contact details.
