TIM DILLON (HOST): By the way, it's the greatest con in history. I mean, truly. It's the greatest, it's the, and I don't say great like a good way. It is truly the most successful con in history. It makes Enron look like a guy doing three-card monte on the street. Anything that you can remember and identify as a complete and utter scam. This is the greatest con in history. 

To run as an America First and you're going to take care of America and then turn around and go, you know, all of these things, day care, Medicare, Medicaid, we've nothing to do with that. We're fighting wars. That's what we're here to do. We're here to have a defense budget of 1.5 trillion and we're here to fight wars. It is the greatest scam in history. You got to hand it to him. And I mean, truly, and not in, you know, again, not in like not in a moral way, but like you got to hand it to him. This is the greatest about face in political history that I have really ever seen. It is the greatest scam.
