Al Gore thought a meeting with Donald Trump would change the president’s views on climate change.

“I’m concerned for the country, but we’ll get through this,” Gore, who met with Trump in December, told us at a screening of “An Inconvenient Sequel.”

Gore hasn’t spoken to Trump since he left the Paris climate accord. “I thought he would come to his senses, but I was wrong,” Gore told us. “I was really happy the other 19 [countries] held firm.”

But Gore thinks “a lot of our governors and leaders and business owners have stepped up and . . . are going to fill the gap and meet commitments . . . regardless of what President Trump does.”
