Hank G ☑️Trevor Milton deserved every bit of his prison sentence as did huckster Elizabeth Holmes. Yet the exaggerations and invented claims that Milton made were on the order of but not even as egregious as the ones Musk was making at the time, had been making for years before, and continues to make.

So when is Musk going to get the same treatment? <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=ElonMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElonMusk</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=tesla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tesla</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=TrevorMilton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrevorMilton</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=BillionairesShouldNotExist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BillionairesShouldNotExist</span></a><br><a href="https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/12/disgraced-nikola-founder-trevor-milton-gets-4-year-sentence-for-lying-about-evs/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Disgraced Nikola founder Trevor Milton gets 4-year sentence for lying about EVs</a>
