caplan spent a decade coming to the supreme court for "newsweek." the author of a book "the assault on the constitution." david, welcome, we'll get to that and the book. first of all, is there anything to this idea that kavanaugh should be perjury? >> i think it's misstated. he may have md stated or tap danced. whether or whether there shouldn't be an inquiry, they're going to confirm him. there could be late breaking news that he was involved in the lindbergh baby kidnapping and they would still confirm him. >> all of this chaos that we showed kicked off the hearing and it continued at various points over three, four days. how do you stack that up against other hearings that you've covered in the past? >> i think it's different in degree, but not kind. these hearings have been aisha raid for a je charade for a generation. presidents bring it on. journalists bring it on. but the responsibility lost in the supreme court itself by getting involved in so many key, social and political issues they raise the stakes in confirmation hearings, and, therefor

an exclusive interview with dallas fed president robert caplan who says the jobs report does show weonomy. however, if you look at the average hourly wages, he is concerned the 2.9% wage growth year over year could mean inflation pressures. however, he says that automation and globalization offset that inflation pressure which means for him, he believes the fed will be on track for three to four more rate hikes in the next 12 months. now, he says one of the biggest three, top three threats to the economy right now is what he's calling the possible unsustainable national government debt. he says that at the moment, right now, we are feeling the height of the stimulus package, the fiscal stimulus, but that government debt could spoil that party. >> that impact of that stimulus will fade in '19 and '20 and our concern at the dallas fed, my concern is in the medium term, if we either start moderating debt growth which i think is very possible, that tail wind is going to turn into a headwind and we haven't experienced that in our lifetime. i have said it's not a monetary policy issue but

host: david caplan.: well, i think the democrats are fair game for criticism for how they handle politics, but that said, i think you could have brett kavanaugh admit that he kidnapped the lindbergh baby and the republicans would still confirm him. that is just the situation. ,he republicans have waited especially movement conservatives, have waited a generation to "get control" of the supreme court, and they think they are on the verge of it with brett kavanaugh. they will certainly have five conservatives on the court, and brett kavanaugh will be to the right of where anthony kennedy was. i think the are going to confirm anybody. but i will say this. if you placed the justices' ideology on a spectrum, i think brett kavanaugh will and him closer to the center where chief justice roberts will veer towards rather than justice alito or thomas or gorsuch. robertskavanaugh and will be what passes for a center of this very conservative court. host: what decisions do you point to for that prediction? guest: i
