How to use disturbed in a sentence?

1. Sebastian Gorka:

   It was tough. We know he's tough because of the border issue and everything else, but yeah, it was internally inconsistent, when he talked about the attitude to our allies, to whether they should freeload or not, also when he talked about Russia and China, I was really disturbed. The things he said about how we can work with Russia and China, Russia is not on our side. The head of Russia is a former KGB colonel who wanted to destroy America. China is the world's most powerful communist nation so the idea, if you think we can work with these guys in meaningful fashion, I think history would prove you wrong. So it's an improvement. I have to be honest, it's an improvement, but it's still problematic and I need a more substantial development of his ideas in the next few weeks and months.

4. Van Lathan:

   One thing that bothers me particularly about where we are as a society is sort of the reverence that we have for celebrities outside of the scope of what they do, but I would be Van Lathan if I didn't say I was personally injured or personally disturbed by what Kanye West has been saying as far as Kanye West support for different people who I feel like are hatemongers.

5. Cosby Phillips:

   As the accusations began to increase, I became increasingly disturbed, i was fairly certain that some of the women were lying through their teeth, but certainly not all of them.
