Recent data signals a trying time for American citizens and could be causing a dip in the current administration's popularity.

A LendingClub study reveals that around 60% of U.S. residents are now getting by on a monthly salary, with this statistic looming over the forthcoming festive season. Inflation rates and fuel expenses are both noticeably steeper compared to when the current leadership assumed power.

Furthermore, the study showed a worrying trend where 40% of shoppers believe their financial standing has deteriorated since 2022, as shared in a CNBC article referencing LendingClub findings. This information was gathered in October, a mere month before the onset of the holiday shopping spree.

Simultaneously, a contrasting survey by TD Bank indicates a resurgence in credit card debt, which has now exceeded $1 trillion. Disturbingly, a considerable 96% of buyers predict exceeding their spending budget this holiday season, as reported by CNBC, further adding to the growing consumer debt.

Half of these consumers are contemplating incurring additional debt to finance their holiday expenses, according to a separate study by Ally Bank. Only about 23% of those borrowers have hatched repayment plans for the next one to two months.
