Tech moguls aren't the only ones changing their tune on Donald Trump. Regional transit agency WMATA boldly refused to issue a commemorative farecard for Trump's first inauguration in January 2017. Riders who had purchased a Barack Obama farecard in previous years were surprised to learn no such collector's item would be available for Trump, but the dominance of the Democratic party in the region limited the fallout for WMATA. But, lo and behold, the agency has issued a commemorative SmarTrip farecard for Trump's second inauguration, and it is available at select Metro stations.
None of the stations are in Bethesda, however. The Trump SmarTrip card is now available in Montgomery County at the Shady Grove, Forest Glen, and Glenmont Metro stations. Riders heading into D.C. on the Red Line can also find them at the L'Enfant Plaza, Metro Center, and Union Station Metro stations. Signage will indicate the machine from which the Trump card can be purchased. The cards are available "while supplies last," WMATA says.

It'd be cool if they used his mug shot and had him in a prison onesie.
I got a Frederick Douglass one & a Parliament Funkadelic Mutha'ship one in my collection when wmata actually made cards worthwhile.
Awww, how will you make it through the next four years? Try thinking of Trump implementing Project 2025 and hanging around for a 3rd term! Lol
There were no Biden farecards either, so it kind of contradicts your narrative.
Kinda surprised they didn't just out of loserspite. Would have been typical.
2:43 PM Go for it!!! Someone has to be doing that (mug shot on one side, orange onesie on the other side) ... unofficially, of course, hahaha
I have a 2017 inauguration commemorative Smartrip, it just doesn't have Trump's face. This year it will. Oh well
I'm so sorry this is happening to you.
