A tweet posted by Donald Trump on Tuesday, in which the Republican presidential nominee said he had been removed from "shackles," was met with criticism by the head of the Congressional Black Caucus.
"The moment an African-American hears the word 'shackles,' it's reminiscent of the era of slavery," Democratic Congressman G.K. Butterfield said in an interview with The Hill. "We're at a point now where Donald Trump is out of control. We don't know what's next."

He is the head of the “congressional black caucus”???
Let me guess.. he “identifies as” black?
Oh please! Not everything in this world has to be viewed in the eyes of a slave of 100-400 years ago.
Maybe he carries a bottle of hot sauce in his pocket.
Is this satire? Has to be satire. It’s satire right?
shackles = slavery? And why is he white. Is someone pulling a joke here?
Trump is out of control? Dont know what he’ll do next?
Cause a mother ####ing revolution if this keeps up.
This a##wipe is full of BS
That’s garbage. I don’t hear anything!
Nutty liberals now find freedom politically incorrect.
Its not Trump who’s crazy; its them.
Give me an f-ing break!!
He what they used to call “high yellow,” light-skinned enough to pass for white, and quite a few did.
Anyone who has, “Butter”, in their name, is melting...
Is he married to Rachel “I wanna be black” Dolezal?
This constant sense of victimhood is shackles on these people more so than racism itself. They seem enslaved by their thoughts and actions.
Let’s just admit the truth. 98% of the BLM crowd wouldn’t even know what shackles are. These are not the sharpest knives in the drawer after all.
Furthermore, if they are so afraid of English words, perhaps they should go to Africa where they won’t have to listen to the rest of us talk.
Then obviously you're not black enough! Time for some sensitivity training ... You need to have your consciousness raised!
Pelosi Dems had gone dark this campaign cycle. Not a peep.
Watch them now begin to slide out from under damp places to directly or indirectly support Paul Ryan, who supports Hillary over Trump.
They call him “trigger”
“Reckless,” precisely. If one is committed to keep the lid on vast corruption one must NEVER be reckless. God Bless Donald J Trump, the most recklessly brave soldier in the army of God.
I am struck by 2 such reckless comments by DJT. The first is his comment that he would see Hillary in jail. Wow! It is worth giving him the presidency just to see if he will do it.
Second, as we witness the pathetic sabre rattling of the Obama/Clinton weasel cabal, we are shocked into high anxiety at the prospect of WWIII. We are, in their final gasps of hubris, brought to the very precipice of annihilation by these terrorists.
Trump will negotiate our way back from the ultimate brink, the cliff over which we are cast into hell. After all, he does not want his crowning achievement, Trump Tower, to become a steaming pile of radioactive rubble.
Hillary? Not so much.
Remember Sarah Palin and “blood libel”? Palin had been accused of inspiring the murder attempt on Rep Gifford and when she called that accusation a blood libel that was anti-Semitic.
A term that had been used for years and years as a synonym for unjustified accusations of murder was suddenly only to be used in conjunction with its origin, Medieval pursuits of Jews.
The Left thinks Orwell's 1984 was a manual!
