"Show someone the door" = chỉ cho ai đó thấy cánh cửa -> nghĩa là người đó không được chào đón và nên ra về; đuổi.

Ví dụ
So they made it necessary for him to quit, gave him $ 3. 8 million and showed him the door.

But please hear me out, said I. That made him more angry. He called his peon (đầy tớ) and ordered him to show me the door. I was still hesitating (do dự) when the peon came in, placed his hands on my shoulders and put me out of the room.

It has been six months since Senate Republicans voted to acquit (tuyên bố trắng án) President Trump in his impeachment trial. This November, voters have a remarkable opportunity to prove they have a stronger moral compass (kim chỉ nam) than those senators ― and show them the door.
