I was slightly shocked to see that Russian oil imports were zero when Trump came into office in 2017.

But, Russia oil imports were more than 150,000 barrels per day for five of Trump's last six quarters.

The chart posted is a little misleading, as the "zero" imports was for a brief period of time.

1n 2016 we imported 162 million barrels from Russia.
In 2017, that was reduced to 132 million barrels

Here is a source that has the data on a per month basis: U.S. Imports from Russia of Crude Oil and Petroleum Products
