Nitpick: Cicero was murdered on 7 December 43 BC. Julius Caesar wasn't deified until 1 January 42 BC, several weeks later.

That's an interesting point. It seems that Cicero would have been between a rock and a hard place, on the one hand advocating republican ideals, and on the other appearing loyal to Caesar in the midst of imperial ambitions.
