#Trump said he doesn’t know #TrevorMilton but was told that the way Milton was treated by the justice system was “very unfair.”

“And they say the thing that he did wrong was he was one of the first people that supported a gentleman named Donald Trump for president,” Trump said. 🤮🤮🤮

Trump also said he acted after receiving some “fantastic recommendations”about Milton.[💰]

the #TrevorMilton (#Nikola Motor fraudster) pardon is not going over well with the #MAGA crypto bros, many of whom were scammed by... Trevor Milton (which should be unsurprising - these are gullible people who love trading meme stocks, AKA “the primary market for #NKLA shares”).

Tesla bros are also pissed, because Milton's whole scam was basically pretending to be Elon Musk for trucks.

The fraudster behind Nikola Motors (the fake electric truck company that made the famous video purporting to be their flagship tractor trailer moving under electric power that turned out to be just an empty truck chassis rolling down a hill) has been pardoned by Donald Trump.

@jimsalter I have actually been having a conversation with myself about Wordpress of late.

I actually do love #Nikola, the static site generator that I use.

And then I find myself thinking "Yes but would I be posting more if I could just be lazy and use the Wordpress post editor web page?"

And then I counter with "OK but HOW GOOD are said posts anyway? If I can't be arsed to spend the 15s it takes me in any given moment of any given average day to get to a keyboard and spin up my editor of choice - Just How Important is what I had planned to say to begin with?

And then I remember that I let my entire hobby domain get owned by a script kiddie a decade or more ago through my ham fistedly installed and not at all secured Wordpress installation :)
