Transcript for those w/o a Twitter account:


STENGER: My Name is Noah Schwartz, I use he/they pronouns. I’m just like really excited that we have, like, the first black woman who could be the president of the united States.​

​

And you know my wife, right, we’re in a polyamorous relationship. The lover my wife took is African-American.​

​

And like I’ve learned so much about the struggle of people of color go through as a result of my wife’s boyfriend. And so I’m really excited to do my part. So solidarity to my marginalized community.​

​

Like the best way to do this is to get the first woman of color to be the commander-in-chief and I’m really excited, so pumped.​

​

REPORTER: Were you this excited when Joe Biden was the nominee?​

​

STENGER: I mean, listen I would vote for a corpse over voting for Donald Trump because he is a disgusting fascist white supremacist pig. Uh, but now, we get to like really make history.​

​

Like I said, we have like the first woman of color to be President of the United States and like our country was founded on the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion.​

​

And Kamala…There’s nothing that embodies those values more than a Kamala Harris presidency. So I’m pumped, I’m ready, I’m so excited.​

​

I’m a proud white dude for Kamala Harris, baby! Let’s go! Whooo!​

​

REPORTER: Have you, have you, uh, seen any excitement at a Democratic event being in the stadium?​

​

STENGER: No, listen, this is amazing. You know, you can’t generate…I couldn’t see any more excitement.​

​

Like the only way there could be any more excitement is if maybe you had an artist or a celebrity performing, um, for all of us. So, no, this is celebrity love and excitement, just say rock star.​

​

You know, the thing I am happiest about when it comes to a Kamala Harris presidency, it’s the economy and um, I’m finally excited how she wants to put a cap on prices at the grocery store.​

​

And, you know, like, even if price controls, they lead to like shortages of food and basic goods. Shortages will lead to rationing and rationing leads to equity and we need to be a more equitable place in America to dismantle our system of white supremacy.​
