Best I can tell, he was insulting her. He probably does think he is superior to her... on a personal level. Like, he probably thinks he's superior to most people, since he's a highly successful businessman turned President.
That's arrogance, not racism. If he holds this view towards all Hispanic people, regardless of thier actual place in society, then yes he's being racist. Does he hold this view? That is not clear based on the facts. So you're jumping to conclusions in an effort to charge Trump with a more serious accusation than simple arrogance.
No, you're trying to find a loophole whereby calling a hispanic woman Ms. Housekeeping isn't racist, but something else.
But obviously there's only one way to interpret that insult, just like there's only one way to interpret Mr. Petrol Station.
