The article below says his "Christian" supporters might lose him their support. No more than irreligious Drumpf lost any support from “Christians.” They go by the irreligious END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS. They don’t care how immoral they are so long as they get their christo-fascist agenda items (anti-Choice, judges).
He had *everything* - wife, mistress, wingman, Uber, zombie cynical "christian" supporters...
PAXTON standing swaying on his feet, embarrassing but incapable of shame. His lawyer even blurs the legal difference between “innocent” and “not guilty”. Wifey as shamed as Pat NIXON.

Ken Paxton tried to hide his affair from his wife and voters. It may be his undoing (UTUSN sez, Naw not really).
.... David Brockman, a nonresident scholar at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Religion and Public Policy, said Paxton had clear reasons to hide his infidelity.
“Evidence of an extramarital affair would strike his supporters as hypocritical,” he said. “He’s promoted himself as a conservative Christian, a defender of biblical values and a guardian of conservative Christian sexual morality. So there’s quite a bit of impetus to keep it secret.”
Since its inception, Paxton’s political life has been inextricably tied to the state’s conservative Christian voting bloc. He has said he first ran for office at the urging of Kelly Shackleford, whose First Liberty Institute has led the legal charge to infuse Christianity into public life. And Paxton has credited his first election to the Texas House in 2002 to a “very simple strategy: Get the church out to vote.”
In his 12 years as a legislator – first as a House member, and then for two years in the Texas Senate – Paxton was a reliable champion of Christian causes, backing bans on Planned Parenthood sex education materials in public schools and co-authoring a state constitutional amendment that would have barred businesses and individuals from being sued for declining to provide services on religious grounds. ....
