More oil facts:. The United States has been a net exporter of petroleum products alone since 2011.

[WTF]

Energy Independence! Trumps energy independence, they say!

The United States exports more refined petroleum products than it does crude oil. Petroleum product exports averaged 5.5 million b/d in the first half of 2021, up from 5.3 million b/d in the first half of last year. Exports of petroleum products include motor gasoline, distillate, and propane exports. Both imports and exports of select petroleum products mainly consumed as transportation fuels—distillate fuel oil, motor gasoline, and jet fuel—altogether decreased in 2020 compared with 2019.

It is more complicated than what your quick post realizes. One is that all crude oil is not the same. It takes different types of refineries to process certain types of crude oil into refined products that are readily used.


Plus Trump pushed for more oil products going to Europe to stop their dependence on Russian oil and gas products.

[WTF]

Complicated in that Obama lifted the ban on US Oil exports?

President Obama signed the 2016 spending bill Friday, including a provision that would allow the export of U.S. crude for the first time in more than 40 years.

Then America should export MORE!

Export the crude liberal lads!

... And of course - "DRILL MATES DRILL!" ...

It's not Biden's fault Trump snuggled up to Putin and gave them Syria and negotiated to leave Afganistan. Hell he was wanting to leave NATO so Putin could waltz into Berlin.

The good thing about Trump and Putins lovefest is this invasion has awakened the sleeping giants both in Europe and and here in thos country.

how dumb you are it's appalling. Trump shoved a worthless shitshow up Putin's ass in Syria.

what reason did the US have to be in Syria? those asshole Kurds? oil?

Trump saved US lives and stuck Putin with a mini Vietnam.


What has Russia gained from five years of fighting in Syria?

Moscow managed to preserve the Syrian regime but it has failed to achieve all its goals in Syria.
