Political Twitter is baffled Tuesday morning after President Trump deleted a pair of retweets calling him a “fascist” and showing a cartoon train smashing into the CNN logo.

Trump retweeted and then deleted a tweet by @MikeHolden42 that read, “He’s a fascist, so not unusual,” according to Mediaite, which captured screen grabs of both now-deleted messages.

The second tweet he retweeted them promptly deleted involved a meme of a train smashing through the CNN logo with the message, “Fake news can’t stop the Trump train.” The White House told NBC News that the train meme wasย “inadvertently posted” and when they “noticed it, it was immediately deleted.”
