Wait, I’m confused. I thought Trump was a Russian stooge? How did he revitalize the US energy industry, contrary to what Russia would have wanted?
Via Daily Caller:
The U.S. will become “energy independent” by 2020, according to a new Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecast released Thursday.
EIA projects American crude oil production will “set annual records through the mid-2020s and remains greater than 14.0 million barrels per day (b/d) through 2040” and the country will be a net exporter of petroleum liquids by 2020.
The U.S. briefly achieved net petroleum exports in November, but that was temporary. However, EIA now predicts that to become a net petroleum exporter — crude oil, refined products and other liquids — by 2019.
