Al Gore accosts Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick after Trump official's Davos speech
2026-01-22
[NY Post] "You're ruining mah grift!"
Former Vice President Al Gore
…I had no idea he was still alive and active. What do his speeches earn nowadays?
briefly accosted Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick after the Trump official’s speech on the sidelines of this week’s World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, The Post has learned.

During a Tuesday VIP dinner hosted by billionaire BlackRock boss Larry Fink, where several hundred people were invited,
…it was an intimate affair…
Lutnick delivered a speech that was fiercely critical of European allies.

When he stepped offstage, Gore walked up to him and said, "Boo" — like he was trying to scare him, a source told The Post.
In some circles that would count as clever repartee.
Lutnick laughed and someone at the event remarked, "What an honor to have Al Gore boo," according to an insider.

The ex-veep confirmed he’d disliked the speech.

"I sat and listened to his remarks," the avid environmentalist told The Post in a statement.

"I didn’t interrupt him in any way. It’s no secret that I think this administration’s energy policy is insane. And at the end of his speech I reacted with how I felt, and so did several others."
Does he yet realize he was wrong in every single particular, and in general as well?
