To clarify, inertia is a Newtonian principle that a body at rest tends to stay at rest and a body in motion tends to stay in motion. An external force is required to change this. The more massive the object, the more force is required to change its state. A heavy object at rest requires more force to accelerate it to a given speed than a lighter object at rest.
There is no such thing as, 'social inertia' but it does seem to work the same way. The more entrenched a social principle, the more force it takes to change it. A President (who already has constitutionally limited powers) is going to encounter more resistance the further he or she tries to move the yard stick.
The so-called Deep State is just simple resistance to change in a large organization.
Administratium.
