Commemorative Trump transit cards were issued by DC Metro prior to the inauguration

As Americans flock to the nation’s capital for the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) has released a special public transit card to honor the event.

The “Commemorative Inauguration SmarTrip Card” is a reloadable payment card that can hold up to $300 in savings on city public transportation, according to the WMATA website.

The transportation card features an image of Trump over a red background with the large number “47” appearing behind the President-elect.

In 2017, WMATA released a standard sleeve card featuring Trump’s face.

A WMATA spokesperson told Fox News Digital, “We’ve done a variety of special themed inauguration cards since 1993, except for 2021 because the inauguration became a virtual event because of the pandemic.”

To get a Trump transit card, be sure to add a fare (one-way fares vary from $2.25 to $6.75 depending on the distance) or buy a 1-Day unlimited pass for $13.50. A $2 SmarTrip fee will also be charged, according to the WMATA site.

Some travelers have already collected Trump souvenir cards and counted transit passes to be resold.

Kristin Petersen, a travel consultant at Travelmation, told Fox News Digital that visitors can stay in out-of-state areas at Metro stops.

“Consider another destination that’s close to a Metro station, even as far away as Vienna, Virginia,” advises Petersen.

He added, “The trains will be running but make sure they check the schedule because they may change to special events like its opening.”
