Maureen Dowd: The Clintons struggle coming to terms with the 'passing of their relevance'

Bill and Hillary Clinton's star power has faded, but that has done little to humble their egos, according to New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd.

After attending a recent event in Toronto for the political power couple, Dowd described a "depressing" sight in which organizers cordoned parts of the Scotiabank Arena because of poor ticket sales.

The opinion piece published Saturday explores how former President Bill Clinton and wife Hillary Clinton, a former senator, ex-secretary of state, and failed presidential candidate, used to attract massive crowds in Canada and elsewhere and could command top-dollar ticket prices. While they still insist on embarking on the speaking circuit, with some VIP seats for speaking tour events have gone as high as $700, the fanfare isn't what it used to be.

They won't be remembered for anything noble. Instead they'll go down as a crooked couple driven by power and other people's money, given to them for favors, big favors.

Maureen Down needs to wake up and then hopefully she'll shut up. Can't stand her. She's not relevant. MAGA
