A lot of people are understandably dubious about Al Gore's meeting with Donald Trump. As always with Trump, you have to be careful not to fall for the optics and focus instead on the actual steps being taken. Just about every single policy decision that Trump has embraced would be disastrous for the environment.
But I think Martin Longman is right. You take the shots available to you. Trump will be president. It is possible the only thing that can keep him sane are his children and we all agree that Ivanka is the "smart one." If I were an interest group advocate, I would be working Ivanka as a resource to try and moderate her father's knee jerk contrarianism.
