Former Vice President Al Gore criticized the Trump administration’s environmental policies during his speech in San Francisco, California, on April 21, 2025. Gore compared the disinformation tactics of the Trump administration to those used in the past by Nazi Germany.
He claimed that the administration perpetuated misinformation about climate change, stating, “They say the climate crisis is a hoax invented by the Chinese to destroy American manufacturing.” Gore warned that populist authoritarian leaders, like Trump, use immigrants as scapegoats to gain power.
