Wednesday was Hillary Clinton's 69th birthday, and she appeared to enjoy herself. Jimmy Kimmel found her tweeting out a birthday wish to "this future president" a little strange and perhaps inappropriate, he said on Wednesday's Jimmy Kimmel Live, "but since it is Hillary's birthday, we wanted to do something fun to commemorate it, so this afternoon we went out on the street, we asked people who said they are Donald Trump supporters to say something nice to Hillary Clinton on her special day." Watch below to see how that went. Peter Weber
