How to use nasty in a sentence?

  1. Tony Jacklin:

    I suspect this hot spell has made the course very fast and, if the wind whips up, it could live up to its 'Car-nasty' reputation and Tiger will understand how to handle whatever it might throw at him, he realises it's not about overpowering a links course, it's about staying in play and being patient. At least 50 percent of the field won't know anything like as much as he does about plotting their way round.

  2. Elizabeth Warren:

    It comes in all sorts of flavors : racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia. It comes in all sorts of forms : nasty personal attacks. Trolling on Twitter. Winking at white supremacists. It all adds up to the same thing : the politics of division.

  3. Donald Trump:

    They said some of the things that she said, and it's actually on tape. And I said,' Well, I didn't know she was nasty.' I wasn't referring to she's nasty, i said she was nasty about me. And essentially I didn't know she was nasty about me.

  4. Donald Trump:

  5. Douglas Muzzio:

    They should have a reality show: 'The Real Candidates of Staten Island,' it's nasty, it's personal – and it's enjoyable to watch.
