John McCain, who ran for president against Obama in 2008, was born in the Canal Zone.  Ted Cruz, who ran for president in 2016, was born in Canada.  No right-wing media or Republican politicians attacked either one.  As the editor writes, "birtherism" was a tactic whose only intent was to discredit the presidency of Obama.  It was dishonest, it was contemptible, and it worked, to a degree, among the rubes.  Now the target of birtherism is Hillary Clinton.  Those same rubes have "discovered" that she is the enemy of all true patriots.
