TOTALLY FALSE! How stupid for you to come in here and dispute what is written record by the EIA. You just completely shredded any ounce of credibility you might have ever had.

The DECREASE of oil production began starkly with Biden's first month in office when oil production PLUMMETED from Trump's last month in office, January 2021 - when production was 344 MB/mo. Bidens first month was 277.
A DROP of a whopping 67 MB/mo

Here is the full scoop on the difference between Trump's strong oil production, and Biden's "transition from fossil fuels" DECREASE from that strong production (until Biden went into election year production mode)

Note that the following pertains to the 2 years of 2021 and 2022, before election politics became a significant factor.

Production was sky high under Trump, and has been relatively tiny under fossil fuel enemy Biden. (up until 2023, as we approach the 2024 election)

Oil production overall not only increased, during the Trump administration, it soared, and was vastly greater than the production we've gotten with Biden.
Trump production
December 2019 - 402.3 Million Barrels/month
January 2020 - 398.4
And Trump exceeded Biden's top month of 371.2 Million Barrels/month NINE TIMES, despite the Obama low production influences and later, the pandemic months reductions. And note also that Biden's top production month of 371.2, was recently in August of 2022, when he started increasing production, to try to lower gas prices, as we started getting closer to the 2022 ELECTION.

Biden's 2021 average is 341 Million Barrels/month compared to Trump's 374.
Biden's 2022 average (when he ramped up production as the 2022 election drew closer) wasn't much better > 354.

U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil (Thousand Barrels)

AND, if we extrapolate the EIA graph curve of Trump to Dec. 2022, if Trump were still president, it would be whopping 580 Million gallons/month - HUNDREDS of gallons/month more than Biden ever allowed produced.

U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil (Thousand Barrels)

Look at the graph line where it peaked at 402 Million Barrels/mo in December of 2019. Because of the climb up to that point, there is every reason to believe, that had the Democrat engineered pandemic shutdowns not occured, that rising line would have continued rising exactly as it was already doing. And if Trump had remained president, and we thereby extend-extrapolate the line to as far as December 2022, we can easily see that it would be at about 580 Million Barrels/mo

(209 million Barrels/mo more than Biden's measly 371 Million).

Go ahead - put a ruler on the line that starts at 2017 when Trump took over, and look at where it goes to for December 2022 > 580 Million

All one need do to see the stark difference between the oil-friendly Trump and the oil-hostile Biden, is look at the NOSEDIVE oil production took between Trump's last month, and Biden's first month (when he issued an EO to halt oil drilling)
Trump's last month in office was January 2021 - production was 344 MB/mo. Bidens first month was 277.
A DROP of a whopping 67 MB/mo
Well, none of this should be any surprise coming from a guy who openly boasted (in the 2020 presidential debate) that he was going to "transition away from fossil fuels"

Biden signs executive order pausing federal drilling leases​

When you actually look inside the jobs numbers, hey aren't good news at all. Just some numbers thrown out by Biden's BLS.

But look deeper and you will see things like this.

This is what the left does. They take away the higher paying jobs with good benefits and force McDonalds to pay you $25 per hour for 15 hours per week.

You guys pick at straws. Trump gets the blame for a purposely released virus that affected the economy of our nation and others. Our own politicians made it worse. The Prog states and cities became nazis to their own and vicious to others. You call Trump many names. What China did was an act of war. We all would not be here if he acted on it. A new type of warfare that has many decades of research that was used. We can kill the population while leaving infrastructure to exist.

[Captain Caveman]

When you actually look inside the jobs numbers, hey aren't good news at all. Just some numbers thrown out by Biden's BLS.

But look deeper and you will see things like this.

I left a large major employer in 2004 (UK), and it was happening then. It doesn't matter what employment costs get thrown at you, as an employer, your turnover and profit only gave rise to x amount of money for wage budget. This was called productivity. So if your branch turned over £1m and your productivity budget was set at 10%, the whole cost of your branch employment had to fit in that £100k budget.

So if minimum wages increased, employers National Insurance increased, pension contributions forced onto employers, sick pay forced onto employers etc.. then as a manager, when I lost a 39 hour full timer, I employed two 15 hour part-timers instead.

So it's down to the government's actions on the job market. So the Democrats can get all excited at the number of jobs Biden has made, but when the total hours are less, the employees and public are worse off. Governments are good at massaging figures and there are plenty of gullibles out there that jump in with both feet.
