Unable to show multiple tooltips upon click in IE 11

please help to resolve the following issue. I am trying to display multiple tooltips on button click and hide them on second button click. For some reason I cannot do it in IE 11. In the example that i provide I can perfectly display them on page load by default. Once I try to do it on click (code commented out) nothing happens.
