  • Now, I am going to kick off this Q&A with a question, which is sort of the idea, really, isn't it?

  • I mean, that makes a degree of sense.

  • It's reassuring.

  • Yes.

  • Thank you, Darshini.

  • And the question is, what does yippie mean?

  • And I'm asking that because President Trump said this on Wednesday.

  • Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit out of line.

  • They were getting yippie, you know, they were getting a little bit yippie,

  • a little bit afraid, unlike these champions, because we have a big job to do.

  • No other president would have done what I did.

  • No other president.

  • I know the president.

  • They wouldn't have done it.

  • Right.

  • Who knows to have the yips?

  • What is it?

  • Well, I always thought yippie was actually like a short, sharp, excited thing when something went well.

  • Like yippie.

  • I think that's a different yippie.
