In Davos, Carney delivered a speech which will go down in history, with overtones of Churchill's 1936 speech about appeasement. Churchill applied this to Hitlerโ€™s expansion, Carney to economic coercion and greatโ€‘power rivalry. Further delay in confronting Trump = fewer choices and bad outcomes.
