Washington Examiner ^ | 08-06-19 | Zachary Halaschak

U.S. Ambassador to Russia Jon Huntsman Jr. submitted his letter of resignation to President Trump and will be returning to Utah where he might be planning a run for governor. The 59-year-old Huntsman notified Trump of the move Tuesday, with his resignation effective Oct. 3. “American citizenship is a privilege and I believe the most basic responsibility in return is service to country,” Huntsman said. “To that end, I am honored by the trust you have placed in me as the United States ambassador to Russia during this historically difficult period in bilateral relations.”

A Mormon in the Land of Vodka is a strange mix.

Utah is being pushed left by the Mormon Mafia along with NV and AZ.
Mittens is only the first step.

The GOP-e fell into their trap by not supporting an alternative to Mittens.

The Huntsman’s are Mormon nobility. One of the clique of ruling families.

We would have all been better off if Mittens had won the nomination in 2008. He wouldn’t have won, but we would have had someone different in 2012 who might have won.

Yes, it bears saying we all smirked right along with our POTUS, after reading Huntsman taking “..... Honor in the trust you have placed in me..... at this difficult time....”.

A Self serving good bye as ever heard, “yada, yada”, as Williamson says.

Mormons are in the same straits as Catholics, both with peacocks running the house solely as a political arm of the trendy, universal Marxist Globalists Party of nincompoops. BIG Money props up these manipulators.
Bigly!

Unfortunately probably Jeb. I don’t think he would have won either.

Would’ve been another ringer. The corrupt party establishment would’ve brooked no opposition to Emperor Zero.

He resigned so that he and Mitt could challenge Trump for the Republican nomination for President in 2020. Probably wouldn’t succeed but could damage him fatally for the general election. And that would be enough for Mitt and the Deep State.

Consider Rep. Nadler’s weekend announcement of the probable timeline for House impeachment proceedings beginning in the fall. The House acts as prosecutor at the Senate trial, so you can bet proceedings will be as drawn out as possible even if they know Trump ultimately won’t be convicted.

This has to be the strategy the Dems intend to follow. Have you noticed that AOC and her “squad” have not talked too much about impeachment since she and Pelosi had their one-on-one meeting? What did Nancy tell Alexandra?
