The 2B disaster of GM.

On September 8th of last year, GM announced their partnership with Nikola. but then, things later escalated when Nikola's schemes have been exposed. there were ' LIES!  there were  Lawsuits!  There was even a  SEX SCANDAL! ' this company is quite shady enough to gain our trust. let's talk about the history of Nikola, and the partnership, to the scandals that caused GM to back out of the deal! To make it simple, i will divide it in 4 categories.

Who is the founder of Nikola?
 ANSWER: TREVOR MILTON 

Trevor Milton is the founder of Nikola. He was born in Utah to Bill Milton, who is a retired Union Pacific Railroad manager, and Sally Milton, who was a realtor. He has a brother and 3 sisters. when his family moved to Las Vegas, he was a toddler, but he moved back to Utah when was 8. at age 15, his mother passed away from cancer.

Trevor is a college drop out from Utah valley college. he has 3 business failures in his chest. St. George security and alarms closed on 2008. Upillar.com closed on 2011. DHybrid closed on 2015.

In 2014, he joined the race to beat tesla. but then it doesn't take a genius to realize it is a company who's name is after the same guy. NIKOLA! He assembled a team with no relevant experience. for example, his brother Travis Milton was named "director of hydrogen production/infrastructure" even though his recent work experience was pouring concrete on driveways

The rise of Nikola
2016 was the time for Nikola! they unveiled the Nikola 1. it was slated to go into production in 2020. despite it's lack of  ANY PROVEN TECHNOLOGY,  Milton night and day claimed It was not a pusher, and it was fully functional. Anheuser Busch, a german-american brewing company, provisionally ordered 800 trucks. it generated gigantic interest and more pre-orders, on June 24th of last year, Nikola's stocks went public, Milton was an overnight billionaire.

GM and Nikola's deal.
On september 8th of last year, GM announced they will be partnering with Nikola to create the Nikola Badger. it would have up to 900 hrsprs, 980 ft-lb of torque and a 600 mile range, and more options like water fountains and refrigerators. Nikola was developing the Badger by themselves, but under the GM deal, they would still design it, repair it, and sell it under the Nikola name. but GM would lend the fuel cells and Ultium batteries they developed with Honda. GM would get 11% of the company in return with equals to 2,000,000 dollars in equity, they would nominate a director to Nikola's board. it was major and after being announced, Nikola's stocks went up by 33%. but this peace only lasted for  2 DAYS! 

Nikola: the electric department of lies
2 days later, the Hindenburg research documented a report exposing Nikola's lies. There was a long list of red flags that destruct Nikola's credibility. The Nikola one never really worked. Bloomberg stated that it was never completed. it couldn't power itself in the unveiling. there was cabled snake up to it so it's light turned on. there were h02 and zero emissions stenciled even though it had 0 hydrogen components. they stated later that they had to run to the hardware store during the show. he admitted that it was never finished, but asserted it never truly was. in a video, it showed the Nikola one in motion. though it was ACCORD TO A FORMER EMPLOYEE a lie, it was towed to the top of the hill and rolled down. he did not just made spurious claims about his vehicles, in 2019 he claimed that the building was powered by solar 3.5 megawatt solar panels. however, no such panels exist according to aerial photos. this was known to be incredibly spurious considering anyone can prove it. the same year, they promised a new battery that would revolutionize the industry. however, it was vaporware and non-existent. the president of the acquiring company (Zapgo) has been found using a NASA expense account to procure SEX WORKERS! Last year, Milton claimed all of the components are made internally. however, it turns out that it was something from Cascadia. the wires covered the logo. that wasn't even everything whatsoever! Nikola and Milton deny the allegations of fraud, but then the department of justice launched a federal investigation that they were doing fraud. GM still stuck by the deal. Nikola later resigned. A new CEO was hired known as Stephen Girsky. a former GM vice president who happened to be the architect of the deal. Milton finally resigned but then, another shoe was thrown on Nikola. 2 women, one of whom is Milton's cousin, accused them of sexual assault. both women were 15 at the time Trevor supposedly assaulted them. since there are no US laws saying that 15 is the age of consent (The age of consent in the USA is 16-18) which would make Milton a pedophile. He denied the pedophilia allegations, but his track record doesn't bode well with his credibility. GM later changed it's toned regarding the scandal, saying they strongly condemn any sort of sexual assault.

The end of the deal
GM stuck by their deal with Nikola for 2 months. near the end of November, GM announced they would no longer help Nikola develop the badger and would no longer take a stake in the company. a revised deal was proposed. having GM still lend Nikola it's technology, but not developing any further the Badger as well as not taking a stake. though it was never known to have been enforced. in December 2020, Republic services announced they would no longer partner with Nikola. Nikola's shared fell by 9.8% which some called a setback. this eventually pressured the company to focus on it's core goal, being the producer of semi trucks for long haul.

After all, the Chevrolet bolt has more technology in it than NIKOLA! other than that, GM has it's Cadillac EV and the upcoming GMC Hummer EV. which will be a revival of the now defunct hummer brand.
