The last thing you do when a toddler throws a tantrum is give in to their demands.

But when it's a toddler with a (nuclear) gun, you do have to tread very carefully and choose your battles wisely.

I can't say yet if Carney has currently made all of the most wise choices. I don't think anyone has enough information (including him) yet to make that call. Time will tell.

I certainly don't envy him this task.
