President-elect Trump will not be featured on D.C. Metro's special Inauguration Day card this year unlike his predecessors, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority acknowledged Wednesday.

Instead, this year's one-day unlimited ride card has a photo of the American flag and the White House on it, but no sign of the man being sworn into office.

WMATA blamed the president-elect's team for not including a photo of Trump on the card.

"Metro requested permission to use a photo, but received no response from the campaign," the agency told DCist. "Due to the long lead time to produce the cards, the new pass commemorates the national celebration of the 58th presidential inauguration."

WMATA created inauguration cards for both of President Obama's ceremonies in 2008 and 2012. It even had one drawn up for 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney before he lost in November.

Hi, we requested permission to use a photo for the Inauguration SmarTrip card. We did not receive a response from the campaign. — Metrorail Info (@Metrorailinfo) December 21, 2016



The cards will sell for $10, approximately 40 percent lower than the normal unlimited day passes.
