I lived in Germany for a while and can speak more than one language - is that a hard concept? Probably.
the overwhelming majority of americans dont speak german, and even of those who do, many wouldnt use german text in their profile.
I was simply making an educated guess. Which was wrong, I'm sorry.

I live in Texas, the most right-winged state in the US.
not true. alabama, utah, wyoming et al. are even more conservative than texas.

She is descriminated against
how exactly?
I understand that its bad for you and your wife that the paperwork takes so damn long, but that's not discrimination. public administration taking way too long to get anything done is an experience that locals as well as immigrants are making everywhere around the world.

Why even bother with the paperwork in the first place?
because laws.

It cost us $2,000 USD to pay for the papers and more to hire an attorney. You need legal help as this anti-immigrant rhetoric strengthens.
I seriously doubt that you wouldnt have needed the attorney without the anti-immigrant rhetoric.

I started to see why so many people decide to skip the process and just take up the jobs that no Americans want.
so... immigrants come into the united states, dont like its laws and they way its public administration works, so the first thing they do after arriving is saying "screw it, I'll be breaking the laws of my host country"... is this what you're saying?

in general: I am sorry if/that your wife is being discriminated against or facing hostility. but dont mix cause and effect. the attitude towards immigrants would be much less toxic if people hadnt gone through over 3 decades of massive illegal immigration that nobody in power gave a fuck about.
if there were strict and strictly enforced immigration laws in place, everyone would know that the immigrants they're seeing on the streets are in the country because they earned it, and not because they just walked in while breaking the laws. they would know that the immigrants they're seing are contributing to society instead of dampening wage growth and collecting welfare checks and health care at the American taxpayer's expense.
with a strictly merit-based immigration system and tough border enforcement, i.e. the exact thing that trump wants for the country, the only negativity towards immigrants would come from the irredeemable core of xenophobic assholes.
