yeah, Nikola pretty much admitted they lied
It's interesting that everything they have done is not PROVABLY fraud, and yet is on the very line between slightly unethical and actually illegal
pretty crazy

As someone not personally involved, I find things like this and Theranos fascinating. I'd love it if Theranos was real; Holmes obviously played on that very well. Green tech is also prone to this effect.
Add to that the "fake it till you make it", and "only cheerleaders allowed" attitudes at startups; the "reality disruption zone" of founders, etc, etc.
Are you stopping another Theranos, or are you killing another Tucker?
Disclaimer: I work for GM, but not on anything related to Nikola. I have no personal knowledge about Nikola from work.
Personal Opinion: Nikola is in the darker side of the gray area; I think there could still be good outcomes, but it looks pretty marginal.
