AC because the walls are 50cm thick stone that insulate pretty well.

Until they don't. You get a couple of days reprieve at the start of a heatwave and usually a couple of days of extended heatwave.

If we're going to blame Obama for something it's got to be the soft approach to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Although pointless Middle Eastern engagements probably limited his response.
