Trump did not order quarters minted without ridges

A claim circulating on social media states that former President Donald Trump has ordered the Federal Reserve to mint quarters without ridges. This post also suggests that this change is in response to a petition from 88 Jewish advocacy groups, which allegedly argue that ridged quarters threaten Jewish safety. However, this claim is false. Official spokespersons from both the White House and CNN have denied it. Trump has not referenced this on any of his social media accounts, nor is there any official statement from the White House on this issue. Additionally, there is no executive order related to this claim. The Federal Reserve has not made any announcements regarding changes to minting quarters. Reports analyzing the claim confirm it is fabricated, and no credible news sources support it either. A White House representative dismissed the claim as "clearly fake," and a CNN spokesperson labeled the post as "fabricated." No evidence has been found to substantiate the viral post.
