One of the first lies of the evening was when Trump claimed that President Joe Biden had emptied America's strategic national oil reserves in order to keep gas prices low before the midterm elections and that he was the one to replenish them.

When Trump took office, the strategic oil reserves were 95% filled, with 695.1 million barrels stored out of the 727 million spots available, according to data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).

When Forbes senior correspondent Robert Rapier looked into Trump's statements, he discovered that the EIA's data indicated that American oil reserves were at approximately 638 when Trump left office.

According to the EIA, the Biden administration saw the United States become a net exporter of petroleum in 2020, which hadn't happened since 1949.
