The Deep State has nothing to do with inertia.

I am thinking you don't understand organizational inertia and, as a result, organizational entropy. The deep state is an amalgam of organizational behavior.

I don’t recall ever hearing the term “Deep State” before Trump was elected.

I also do not recall senior government executives ever conspiring to remove or destroy a Democrat president.

As to inertia and entropy, I think the social sciences need to invent their own vocabulary instead of expropriating words from the basic sciences.

In 2020, the Deep State is guided by Hard Left political ideology - nothing more, nothing less.
