President Joe Biden said in a USA Today interview that he could have won the 2024 presidential election against Donald Trump.

In public, Trump has decried the state of the nation as "a disaster" and "a mess." But at their private meeting, Trump praised him, Biden said. "He was very complimentary about some of the economic things I had done. And he talked about − he thought I was leaving with a good record."

Polls showed Biden falling behind Trump before he stepped aside, and that he lost ground after a shaky debate performance in June.

President Joe Biden's move to protect offshore areas is largely symbolic, but the economic factors that may limit oil output gains are very real.
