Sen. John Cornyn briefly shared a post calling Donald Trump the "Commander-in-Cheat" on Tuesday — then deleted it — in a stunning moment of apparent candor from a Republican incumbent fighting for his political life one week before a Trump-backed primary runoff.

As first reported by The Federalist's Sean Davis, Cornyn retweeted a post from advocacy group Pastors for Children that ticked through Ken Paxton's long list of scandals — his impeachment, felony indictment, and divorce on grounds of adultery — before landing on the kicker: "Endorsed by our Commander-in-Cheat."

But Cornyn didn't just share it. He leaned in.

"This is what you are going to see from now until the November election with a vastly different electorate," Cornyn wrote above the repost. "There is still time to vote this week or on May 26th. Join us #stillwithCornyn."

Then he deleted it.....
