The Phoney War was an eight-month period at the start of World War II, from September 1939 to May 1940, during which there were virtually no Allied military land operations on the Western Front. The term was coined to describe the lack of major hostilities between the declaration of war by Britain and France against Germany and the start of significant military action in the West.
It takes a while for shit to happen. Except we have learned as did the Germans that Fascism gets it's claws in quick.

Like when the Dodo Birds met the Dutch. America is defenseless against Trump.
The path of increase is slow, but the road to ruin is rapid. Yet the backlash in the system delays the whiplash.

For now the band plays on.
