TRUMP TOWER TO OVAL OFFICE!
Trump transitioned from businessman to president in 2017, bringing significant changes to the oil industry. His administration prioritized deregulation, expanded offshore drilling, and most notably, boosted U.S. crude oil production.
In November 2017, the United States achieved a milestone, producing over 10 million barrels of oil per day—a level not seen since November 1970.
Donald J. Trump, the 45th and now 47th President of the United States, was first inaugurated on January 20, 2017. Today, January 20, 2025, he is set to be inaugurated for a second term.
