"Have the last laugh" nghĩa là gì?

'Have the last laugh' = là người cuối cùng còn cười, người cười lâu nhất -> nghĩa là cuối cùng đã được xác minh là đúng, được minh oan -> dập tắt những hoài nghi trước đây (be finally vindicated, thus confounding earlier skepticism).

Ví dụ
Hamilton has the last laugh on team orders in Sochi.

Putin is bound to get the last laugh over the Salisbury poisoning.

Bringing family into the marketing hype was a tactic that contributed to Khabib’s meltdown at UFC 229, but in the end, Abdelaziz got the last laugh after McGregor was forced to surrender in the UFC 229 main event.

Trump's beef with Germany is chiefly about EU trade and regulations. Merkel is arguably the most influential European leader. But her two Achilles heels for criticism and isolation from the EU herd are NATO contributions and the gas pipeline. The lesson for UN delegates who may have laughed is this: Hope you don't get found out. President Trump likes respect. He won't forget. And he may get the last laugh.
