I wouldn't be so sure Trump is representing the deep state, well, he is, but not on purpose, Trump is a narcissist, his main goal is to represent himself and go down in the history books as the president who made america great again, that it aligns with the deep state policies is just a "happy" coincidence, Trump doesn't really give a **** about them.. of course he also realizes he needs their support so he won't do anything that would piss them off, like trying to keep his promises of dismantling the deep state or releasing the Epstein client list, he doesn't want to end up like JFK.. as the saying goes, meet the new boss, same as the old boss.. only not as woke and senile and lot more entertaining..
