"How the mighty have fallen" = đế chế hùng mạnh sụp đổ như thế nào -> chế nhạo, mỉa mai cho rằng điều người khác đang làm là nhục nhã, đáng xấu hổ. 

Ví dụ
There was a time when Manchester United and Newcastle were engaged in battling for top-flight honours (danh hiệu hàng đầu). But ahead of Saturday’s fixture (trận đấu) at St James’ Park, it is a case of how the mighty have fallen.

How the mighty have fallen. Actress and Trump-loving MAGA-advocate (người ủng hộ) Stacey Dash claims she can’t afford her own attorney (luật sư riêng) to deal with the domestic violence (bạo lực gia đình) charges she is currently facing. 

That C.K. is playing at comedy clubs and not, say, arenas is telling and, perhaps, strategic (chiến lược). This is a comedian who has sold out Madison Square Garden eight times. Now he’s playing a run of club shows at Rumor’s. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
