Don't forget all the stuff that happens at BWI. Maryland is a blue state too.

Or LAX being proud of wanting to have the most Nude-O-Scopes in this problem. California isn't a bastion of redness either.

This isn't a red or blue problem. It's a freedom problem and a government out of control problem.
