Yes but the mayor and city council don't give orders Their commanding office does, and that person is most definitely a trump supporter.

The mayor is literally the chief executive officer of the police department in his city, much like the president is chief executive officer of the military. Refusing to follow a lawful order is grounds for rightful termination and a loss of pension.

The commanding officer takes orders from the mayor.

I mean do they? I've watched the mayor of LA call for step down in violence and the cops just ramp it up. But yeah i wish everything I was saying was not true I really really hope that everything works out for Chicago and that CA will follow.

You're probably right, but theoretically theres a chain of command. We'll just have to see what trump does and how Chicago responds.

It would be extra nice if they took them to that Chicago PD torture warehouse.
