It wasn't entirely clear since I quoted what I did, but I was remarking broadly and not just isolating my opinion to Carney's response. I've been seeing a fair amount of criticism of people saying that it's a good thing this happened and anything said to the contrary is just liberal whining, and a lot of criticism saying that it was done illegally and that's why it's a bad thing.

I don't think those are mutually exclusive positions. I hope that removing Maduro has positive results for the people of Venezuela... but history does not suggest that is often the case. How he ended up being removed is a bit more concerning.
