The Most Non-Essential Government Employee?

As many know, this week the media has been covering the partial federal government shutdown ad nauseam. During this time federal government employees who are labeled as non-essential have been furloughed, and yesterday Congress passed a bill to provide backpay to all of those furloughed employees.

I'd like to propose relabeling the President of the United States as a non-essential government employee, as he has shown no signs of negotiating to resolve the situation, making me wonder what exactly is he doing at this time.

Well I guess he's too busy offering his opinion on renaming the Washington Redskins and barricading national parks and memorials to have any time negotiating. He is even going so far as to barricade attractions that are not run by the federal government. That's essential right?

Or maybe he is busy fixing the Obamacare servers...
