I assume that everyone here has heard about the Rubber Room policy in the New York City schools.  This policy, is designed to deal with teachers who, frequently for reasons of criminal behavior, cannot be put in a classroom.  Union regulations prevent the schools from doing the obviously sensible thing and firing them, so they warehouse them, having them come to a room every day and just sit there, in exchange for their salary and benefits, and if they stay around long enough, their pension.  The last time I heard, there are 3,000 of them.

It occurred to me that the same type of strategy might be very effective in helping the Trump administration deal with the problem of politically motivated leaks, and other resistance to the implementation of his policies, the issue that is being called the Deep State.  I propose that Trump set up a Rubber Room for each department and agency within the federal government.
