The "deep state" is a natural result of a government that covers such a wide area and regulates so many things that it can't be managed by one person. Many people were aware of this before Trump came and gave it a name and said it was a problem.
Your reaction is probably, "the government should be involved in less things, so that one person can manage it."
But that wasn't Trump's reaction.  Trump's reaction was, "people should just do what I say, even if they think it's illegal.". He wanted more power, not less.
And by the way, most of them are elected, by the elected President and elected Senate.
