joining me are amy walter of the "cook political report," and stu rothenberg of the "rothenberg-and-gonzalezical report." welcome to you both. we have seen, over this weekend, and in the past week or so, president-elect trump inserting himself very overtly into american policy on israel, on taiwan and china. he's negotiating government contracts. i'm curious, amy, is this as unprecedented as it seems? >> it is unprecedented. of course, we've never had a president-elect coming in the age of twitter, either. so there's that piece of it. and i feel like a broken record, but every time we're together, i say the same thing, which is we have to expect that this is going to be an unprecedented presidency. he ran an unprecedented campaign, he's shown no signs of being a different president-elect as he was a candidate, but i think he's also showing us the kind of president that he's going to be, especially on an issue like israel where he's going to move much closer to where the hardliners, especially benjamin netanyahu, want the u.s. to be than where obama was. this is a relationship between israel
