Inevitably, this once again proves Trump is being bought and solid by the Russians and Saudis.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/09/trump-oil-industry-campaign-money/ Donald Trump dangled a brazen “deal” in front of some of the top US oil bosses last month, proposing that they give him $1 billion for his White House re-election campaign and vowing that once back in office he would instantly tear up Joe Biden’s environmental regulations and prevent any new ones, according to a bombshell new report.
According to the Washington Post, the former US president made his jaw-dropping pitch, which the paper described as “remarkably blunt and transactional,” at a dinner at his Mar-a-Lago home and club.
In front of more than 20 executives, including from Chevron, Exxon, and Occidental Petroleum, he promised to increase oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, remove hurdles to drilling in the Alaskan Arctic, and reverse new rules designed to cut car pollution. He would also overturn the Biden administration’s decision in January to pause new natural gas export permits which have been denounced as “climate bombs.”

>>1294233 The Saudis don't want competition from US domestic oil. Competition means lower prices which means less profit. Please think before you post.
Also there are different types of oil and oil extraction. Some are cheaper than others. Saudi Arabia has oil that is cheaper to extract. Offshore, fracking, oil sands and shale oil are more expensive than your basic reservoir sweet crude.

>>1294345 The US has been producing as much or more oil than we did in the peak month of Trump's administration almost every month since July of last year.

>>1294427 >none of those articles substantiate what you're claiming >https://priceofoil.org/2012/05/22/keystone-xl-gas-price-myth-busted/ >The pipeline would not add to oil supply coming into America for at least 15 years. This is because there is currently around 2 million barrels per day of spare pipeline capacity between Canada and the United States. Keystone XL would therefore divert oil that would have been processed in the Midwest to the Gulf Coast. >Midwest refineries have been enjoying discounted crude oil prices for the past 18 months. This is due to the glut of Canadian and American oil in the region. The stated purpose of Keystone XL is to relieve that glut and raise the price tar sands producers receive for their oil both in the Midwest and in Canada. Midwest refineries will pay more for their crude and will either pass on the cost to consumers or reduce their production, which eventually will have the same effect. This quote is from an article in 2022 and it 100% substantiates exactly what I said. Engage with it. Don't run away now that you don't have an argument.

TC Energy never said where those products would end up. They could have been sold in the U.S. market, or loaded on tankers for export to other nations. It’s flawed logic to assume this would have represented a huge boost in U.S. gasoline supply that would have lowered prices. >U.S. refining capacity hit a record high at the beginning of 2020, right before the COVID downturn. The portion of oil arriving at refineries from domestic sources also hit a new high, with foreign oil from Canada and elsewhere dropping from 69% of refinery input in 2010 to just 28% in 2020. With imported oil from every source becoming less important, imported oil from a single pipeline doesn’t even register. >Capacity utilization at refiners would also have fallen if the missing XL oil left refiners short of oil. That also hasn’t happened. Capacity utilization actually rose from 2008-2019, which indicates refineries were getting all the oil they needed. Anonymous
>>1294427 >imports are much lower Imports have been on a mild downward trend since Bush left office, and are currently at about the same levels they were for the later half of Trump's term, depending on the month.

https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=pet&s=mcrimus1&f=m Where are you seeing they're much lower?
And even if they were, if domestic production is up, isn't that a good thing? Reducing our dependency on foreign oil?
