segaastrocitymini|美财长耶伦称若特朗普重新入主白宫将危及美国经济增长

Us Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said on Friday that a fragmented democracy could have a devastating impact on the economy. Yellen's argument is an indirect blow to Donald Trump.

In her speech, Yellen used economic data to paint a picture of how disregard for American democratic processes and institutions led to decades of economic stagnation.

This is Yellen's rare involvement in the political arena. In previous speeches, she never mentioned the name of Trump, a potential Republican presidential candidate, but she hinted that the former president's return to the White House would have a potential impact on economic growth.

Yellen's remarks are a warning to business leaders.SegaastrocityminiThey may ignore Trump's disregard for modern democratic norms because they prefer the former president's vision of growth through tax cuts and deregulation.

Yellen's office released a copy of her speech in advance. In it, Ms Yellen acknowledged that democracy "does not seem like a typical area for finance ministers", but added that "democracy is essential to building and maintaining a strong economy."
