$1.8M Trump Donation Paid Off With Pardon For Fraudster

It's Trump corruption 101.

Trevor Milton, the convicted founder of EV startup Nikola, just proved that you can fleece people to the tune of millions of dollars and get away with it these days if you give money to Donald Trump and stroke his ego.

From Associated Press:

The pardon of Milton, who was sentenced to four years in prison for exaggerating the potential of his technology, could wipe out hundreds of millions of dollars in restitution that prosecutors were seeking for defrauded investors.
