So, as mayor, just out of curiosity, would he be able to make it so that serving in ICE immediately disqualifies someone from being a NYC police officer for life?

It seems like the most sensible thing to do. Why would you trust that trash with policing your city?

Should treat them like we would any other violent human trafficker

I don't think the mayor can just decree that sort of thing.
