Andrea Tantaros Of FOXNews States That $133 A Month In Food Stamps Would Leave Her Looking ‘Fabulous’….

Newark, New Jersey mayor Cory Booker, issued a Twitter challenge that has him living off of $133 a month in food stamps, for one month.

On Saturday, the Newark mayor and Twitter legend engaged in a back-and-forth with @MWadeNC, a self-described Army veteran and Army wife “fighting against any and all forms of socialism/communism.”

After much back and forth on Twitter, he decided to adhere to the challenge.

The amount of $133 is the amount an average American would receive in food stamps, plus about $75 for each additional dependent.

Fast forward to Wednesday’s broadcast of The Five on Fox Business.

Ms Tantaros was asked by co-host Stuart Varney, during Wednesday’s broadcast of The Five on Fox Business, if she could live on that amount.

She told Fox viewers: ‘I should try it because do you know how fabulous I’d look?

‘I’d be so skinny. I mean, the camera adds ten pounds, it really does.’

Social media lit up with thousands of outraged responses following Ms Tantaros’ off-hand remarks.

One tweet from @imthepain29 read: ‘She can lose lbs but she can’t lose Ugly.’

Another tweeted at the presenter said: ‘Lucky you can diet by choice, not poverty.’

Ms Tantaros hit back on Twitter, posting: ‘It’s amazing how stupid & humorless some liberals can be. I’m asked if I can live on $134/mo in food WHICH I HAVE, and they go crazy Really?’ 

She later highlighted a Department of Agriculture radio advert that had compared food stamps to a healthy eating plan.

The 33-year-old later added: ‘Food stamps were sold as a fitness plan to “look great” by our liberal, dense government – remember?’

I’m beginning to believe that, Ms Tantaros and the rest of the correspondents on (FAUX)FOXNews are living in an alternate reality that none of us are aware of.

The last time I visited the grocery, (which was yesterday, coincidentally) the store brand cereal is listed for $3.59 for a 17oz box.

The cheapest pack of chicken wings are listed at $10.75.

I’m not sure how Ms Tantaros would feed herself for a month, considering organic foods are priced about 25-35% higher than the regular food items.

I personally spend $133 every two weeks for my family.

Once again, this is a great example of why I rarely see a Republican’s point of view.

The Republicans on (FAUX)FOXNews are out of touch with America.
