    Better chance of it, yeah. But I suspect Trump’s antics against us meant that they guy who was one of the most respected financial minds in the world and led two countries through previous crises was always going to win.

    They couldn’t have scripted a better narrative than “Trump’s a financial idiot and I’m one of the top financial minds on the planet.”

      Yep, it was really perfect for the liberals. I wonder if choosing Carney was a calculated choice to benefit from the turmoil in the US, or if it is just ridiculously good luck.
