Newsmax readers went ballistic Tuesday after the far-right channel shared a link on X, 
the former Twitter, to an article that described Donald Trump’s “degrading rhetoric”
 at a campaign stop.

The network, a staunch Trump ally, had published a Reuters wire story on its site about 
Trump’s recent remarks in Grand Rapids, Michigan. But the article appeared as if it were 
written by Newsmax, except for a tiny copyright line at the bottom that identified it as 
a Reuters story.

The first sentence of the Reuters article ― “Donald Trump called immigrants illegally in 
the United States ‘animals’ and ‘not human’ in a speech in Michigan on Tuesday, resorting 
to the degrading rhetoric he has employed time and again on the campaign trail” ― appeared 
nearly verbatim in Newsmax’s tweet (pictured below).

Right-wing readers reacted harshly to the tweet. “Everyone block Newsmax,” one person wrote.
 “Newsmax is fake news trash,” another declared.

Newsmax later deleted its tweet
