Former Superman actor Dean Cain reveals he's becoming an Ice agent to support Trump's mass deportation agenda

Former Superman actor Dean Cain reveals he’s becoming an Ice agent to support Trump’s mass deportation agenda | Television | The Guardian

Former Superman actor Dean Cain has announced he has signed up to join US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice), in order to support Donald Trump’s anti-immigration agenda.



Speaking on Fox News on Wednesday night, Cain told host Jesse Watters that he decided to join Ice after sharing one of their recruitment videos on his Instagram account on Tuesday, which Watters had spoken about on his show.

“I’m actually a sworn deputy sheriff and a reserve police officer – I wasn’t part of Ice, but once I put that out there and you put a little blurb on your show, it went crazy,” Cain told Watters on Wednesday. “So now I’ve spoken with some officials over at Ice, and I will be sworn in as an Ice agent, ASAP.”

Asked what inspired him to join, Cain said: “This country was built on patriots stepping up, whether it was popular or not, and doing the right thing. I truly believe this is the right thing.”

...lamer than a Markwayne mullet.

Weaker than Trump's hair glue—look, up there in the sky, it's a buzzard, it's a crop duster, it's magaman!

Superman or Clark Kent was the ultimate undocumented migrant.
Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster must be rolling over in their graves.

He must not read Superman.

Superman is an undocumented alien living under an assumed name.

Also, in some storylines, an evil businessman becomes President of the United States.
Superman's nemesis: Lex Luthor.

Does he have any qualifications at all? Also, did they drop their rigorous physical? It is certainly no easy task for a 59 year old to pass, unless he was an elite retired athlete, which he isn't.
