Jon Huntsman has accepted President Donald Trump's offer to be the next ambassador to Russia. He comes with impressive credentials:

  • He is the former Governor of Utah.
  • He served as Ambassador to Singapore under President George H.W. Bush.
  • He served as Ambassador to China under President Barack Obama.
  • He is a former 2012 GOP presidential hopeful.

 

While he endorsed Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, Huntsman had the gumption to say he should drop out after a tape of Trump was released - you know, where he bragged he could grab women by their genitals without their consent.
