WASHINGTON — President Trump has pardoned Trevor Milton, a convicted fraudster who once ran electric and hydrogen vehicle-making Nikola Motors — a now-bankrupt rival of Elon Musk’s Tesla. Milton, 42, announced the pardon Thursday on X, and two White House officials confirmed to The Post Friday that Trump, 78, had indeed issued the reprieve — stifling speculation that it might be a PR stunt by Milton. It’s unclear who advocated internally for Milton to receive clemency following his 2022 conviction on three counts of fraud involving Nikola — which like Tesla is named after the pioneering Serbian-American engineer.
