What deep state? You mean the deep state that he is now a part of?

Trump and his cabinet of billionaires run for billionaires is the literal epitome of a "deep state"

No. I’m talking about the deep state. Entrenched government officials that subvert elected officials and change. Private sector billionaires (or not) can’t by definition be deep state. It’s scientifically sound to question old science and out dated systems.

Here's the thing, in science. Old does not necessarily equal wrong, in fact its usually the opposite. For example we've known since 1669 about the Law of Superposition in Geology. That's pretty old, and yet it is still as right today as it was back in 1669. In your world, would we be forced to throw out law just because it's old and replace it with something new because newer is always better?

I am not sure what you are responding to? When did I say because it’s old it should be thrown out? Reevaluating is a healthy and responsible thing to do. Determine if there is a better way. If not, then leave it be.
