'Wouldn’t expect us to be changing': Oil execs hand Trump a searing defeat on energy costs

Oil executives handed President Donald Trump a searing defeat in his effort to lower energy costs for Americans ahead of the midterms, according to a new report.

The Washington Examiner reported on Friday that executives from Exxon Mobil and Chevron said they have no plans to increase production, which could help lower pump prices. Their comments come after Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Energy Secretary Chris Wright called on oil companies to increase their production earlier this month.
