President Donald Trump's reactions to exhibits at the National Museum of African American History and Culture has Twitter in a tizzy.

Part of Trump's Tuesday tour of the new Smithsonian museum included artifacts used by and on enslaved African-Americans, according to The Atlanta Journal Constitution. One display featured a stone auction block on which black people would stand before being sold.

Martin Luther King Jr.'s niece, Alveda King, said that when Trump saw the auction block, she overheard him declare, "Boy, that is just not good. That is not good."
