Imagine a white male nominee chatting away about how his “physiological differences” will allow him to reach “better conclusions” than those of a female Latina judge.

On this — I think it’s pretty clear from the context of the rest of her speech that “physiological differences” refers to the difference between male and female, not skin color.
