Too little, too late.
The 2016 Presidential election sure has been heating up as both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have continued to take shots at each other… and now they’re moving on to the whole “birther movement” thing!

As you’ve probably noticed by now, Trump hasn’t shied away from questioning President Barack Obama‘s birth certificate due to the fact that he doesn’t believe the prez was actually born in the country!
Well, Hillary finally had enough of Trump’s tirades on Thursday night, so she took to Twitter to call out the businessman, tweeting:
President Obama’s successor cannot and will not be the man who led the racist birther movement. Period.

YASSSSS!!!
However, in a twist no one saw coming, the former Celebrity Apprentice host FINALLY admitted that Obama was in fact born in America at the unveiling of a new hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington on Friday, saying:
“President Barack Obama was born in the United States. Period. Now we all want to get back to making America strong and great again.”
That’s a start…
But what about that apology for HOUNDING the president for so long?!

Luckily, Hillary Clinton noticed the political buffoon’s mistake and once again took to Twitter to call her opponent, rightfully ranting:
What Trump just did is a disgrace.

Expressing zero regret for years of pushing a racist conspiracy theory, Trump again appointed himself judge & jury on @POTUS‘s citizenship.

Leading the birther movement is deplorable. Attempting to say it “did a great service” to the president who Trump attacked is asinine.

When Trump tries to deflect blame for denying that @POTUS was born in America, he is lying. https://t.co/lje3lKrZQy pic.twitter.com/yq9IWnvXUc

Again, Trump turns his faults on others. Psychologists call it “projecting.” Kids call it “I’m rubber, you’re glue.” https://t.co/lKDDD0wwsn

This shouldn’t have to be said: You don├óΓé¼Γäót just get to say someone else did the worst things you├óΓé¼Γäóve done. It doesn├óΓé¼Γäót work. No one buys it.

Trump has spent years peddling a racist conspiracy aimed at undermining the first African American president. He can’t just take it back.

The birther lie is what turned Trump from an ordinary reality TV star into a political figure. That origin story can’t be unwritten.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 16, 2016
Trump├óΓé¼Γäós birtherism stems from the same innate beliefs that led to discriminating against black tenants early in his career. Can’t be undone.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 16, 2016
What Trump should do: for once in his life, own up to his mistakes. Apologize to the President, and to the American people.
