Every one of these Democrat plantation slaves were allowed to momentarily step outside of the fence for tactical reasons only.
Allred represents a racist district in the Dallas area -- he's running for the Senate against Ted Cruz and has a HUGE bankroll of liberal/Hollywood money with which to do so. Cruz is not nearly as safe as some would like to believe (yeah yeah, we know all about what happened to Beto the last time against Cruz).
Every one of the others aside from maybe Sorensen in his ultra-gerrymandered Democrat district in Illinois, are in marginal districts. Some more so than others, but they need to pose as "moderates" occasionally and the plantation masters permitted them to play make-believe on this current vote in order to get them the illusion of "cred" regarding border security.
Look how courageous they are, to defy their party like that! Yeah, right.
H.R. 2...was passed by the House with "0" Dem votes.
