White House announces Trump intends to nominate Jon Huntsman as ambassador to Russia — and spells his name wrong pic.twitter.com/Yw6Ibn7FeQ

The release declared the president's intent to make "John" Huntsman the new ambassador. There's no "h" in the governor's first name. Huntsman's first name is spelled correctly elsewhere on the document.
What does this mysterious "h" mean? Could it be an encoded message from the deep state? A covfefe-style digital scavenger hunt? Evidence of a far-ranging globalist conspiracy? All of the above?
Trump's stance has definitely softened on the Utah governor, who he once called a "lightweight" who "nobody cares about" during Huntsman's bid for the Republican nomination in the 2012 presidential election.
@JonHuntsman has zero chance of getting the nomination. Whoever said I wanted to meet him? Time is money and I don't waste mine.

A total lightweight: @JonHuntsman continues to give the worst responses on China in the debates. I can see why (cont) http://t.co/YwKcaMf0

The lightweight, @JonHuntsman, used my name in a debate for gravitas--it didn't work. Sad!

@JonHuntsman just trashed the GOP and stood up for China on Sunday http://t.co/DA3dhBYd I am surprised he didn't say it in Mandarin.

"Nobody cares" about the Iowa straw poll is what @JonHuntsman said yesterday. His problem is that nobody cares about his campaign (or him).

Jon Huntsman called to see me. I said no, he gave away our country to China! @JonHuntsman
