How to use trapped in a sentence?

1. Mark Eiglarsh:

   It's very difficult for all of us. Everyone seems to know someone, or know someone who knows someone connected to that building, when you really think about the two options: Either he's not with us or he's trapped under some rubble for two days. It's very difficult to consider either option.

2. Janvier Chouteu-Chando:

   Men have the bloods of their fathers and the passions of their mothers, in the same sense that women have the bloods of their mothers and the passions of their fathers. We often find ourselves trapped in life when we fail to balance the two. The most unusual of men are those who are haunted by the warped bloods of their fathers and the untamed passions of their mothers. They become either the legends of the legends mankind lives to remember or they end up as the fools of their time,”

3. President Barack Obama:

   Since 1959, we've been shadow boxers in this battle of geopolitical politics and personalities, i know the history, but I refuse to be trapped by it.

4. Myles Zyblock:

5. Joe Biden:

   The future for America is to promise not to be trapped in an endless political warfare.
