Dean Cain wants to be an ICE agent but did not seem prepared for the physical rigors. By: MEGA; Fox News
Dean Cain appeared unprepared to be an ICE agent as he struggled through the agency’s training course, Knewz.com can reveal. The 59-year-old former TV Superman tackled the course after revealing he had signed up to aid U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to support President Donald Trump’s policies, but he’s been met with backlash.
Embarrassing performance

The Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman actor attempted to navigate an obstacle course at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Georgia but struggled as he tried to get over a wall. He was then captured crawling on his knees through a barrel and slowly making his way through the course while holding a dummy. Cain’s poor showing led plenty on social media to mock him, with one poster commenting, “Yeah, he’s not ready to be put on the field.” Another added, “Dean Cain is going for that blue ribbon. This is not training; it looks like a human being training for a local dog show.” Another commenter called him “Faster than a speeding bullet… kinda.” Others were even more biting, with another poster lamenting, “He couldn’t pass the test for Mall Cop, so he joined ICE, hoping to restart his failed career.” Still another had one word for Cain’s performance on the course: “Pathetic.”
‘I’m not untrained!’

Cain was quick to respond to the backlash. “What you’re making fun of is me standing up for federal law enforcement and American citizens. If you want to make fun of me for that, go ahead,” he said. Even as Cain is being buried in jokes and insults, ICE still thinks the ’90s Superman’s efforts will help drive up recruitment numbers. Cain recently doubled down on his ICE fantasy during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored after Republican strategist turned Trump critic Tim Miller questioned whether the actor is truly suited for his new role. “I don’t understand why you had to go [with] a ‘former, untrained actor’ — I’m not untrained!” Cain lamented during the heated debate. “Should I say that because you’re a former Republican strategist, you have no say on anything? That’s baloney!”

Cain also explained that he’s a volunteer sheriff’s deputy and reserve police officer, so he is training — he’s just not trained as an ICE agent “yet.” Miller then tested his knowledge, asking what rights migrants have when ICE shows up at their door. “Denigrating someone because they’re doing this, because of what they used to do, or what they do, or whether they’re an actor, a writer or a newscaster, is ridiculous,” Cain responded, avoiding the question. “It’s an ad hominem attack. It’s wrong.” After he was asked the same question again, Cain admitted he’s “not an ICE agent yet,” to which Miller replied, “So you are an untrained, former actor?” Cain called out Miller for attempting to “denigrate it like it’s something negative.” Miller fired back, “You don’t know the job. That’s why it’s negative.”
Cain skewered since his ICE announcement

Cain has been the source of jokes ever since he announced on Instagram in August that he was joining ICE, telling his followers how he “felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it.” Notable comics including Margaret Cho and Bill Maher have slammed the A Mile In His Shoes actor. “You can make the cheap jibes, and it’s funny,” Cain said, defending himself. “Bill Maher did it and, let’s see, a couple of our congressmen did it, too, but the fact that I’m being, you know, pilloried or attacked for joining up with a federal law enforcement agency is insane.”
