What exactly does Trump mean when he says the U.S. is the "hottest country in the world?"

Is this Trump thumbing his nose at environmentalists? Is this Trump marketing VHS tapes titled Nations Gone Wild? Or, as affordability in the U.S. peters out, is this just straight up gaslighting?

About women. Noso called leader in the world says such a thing other than him. It turns my stomach. It’s wrong.

The highest temperature recorded on Earth is 56.7 °C (134 °F), which was measured on July 10, 1913, at Furnace Creek Ranch in Death Valley, California, USA. This record has stood for over a century, making Death Valley synonymous with extreme heat.
