Even if US refineries were designed for US oil to keep domestic prices low one would have to introduce export restrictions because oil is a global commondity. Big oil will not be happy about that and it seems they have a great influence over the respublican party and Trump.
Oh I expect its a very real possibility that the oil industry would just be nationalized if push came to shove.
I don't expect this to happen given how powerful is oil lobby in the US. At least not when Republicans control house and senate.
