How to use wrecking in a sentence?

  1. Jeff Sessions:

    I reject the idea that America will be a better place if marijuana is sold in every corner store. And I am astonished to hear people suggest that we can solve our heroin crisis by legalizing marijuana – so people can trade one life-wrecking dependency for another that’s only slightly less awful, our nation needs to say clearly once again that using drugs will destroy your life.

  2. Prime Minister Scott Morrison:

    We don't want job-destroying, economy-destroying, economy-wrecking targets and goals, which won't change the fact that there have been bushfires or anything like that in Australia.

  3. Sacramento Metropolitan Fire Department:

Working with the on-site wrecking yard personnel, the Tesla was moved on its side to gain access to the battery compartment underneath.

  4. Jamie Squire/Getty Images:

    I think it's going to be close. I don't know if they have enough magic left. I mean, what they've done to get here, it's been a shock. There's so much talent on that LA Rams team. There is so much depth. There’s so much star power. There’s game-changers, jalen Ramsey can change the game in one interception for a touchdown. Aaron Donald can change the game in one sack. Von Miller has taken over a Super Bowl (in the past). They have so many game-changing, game-wrecking players everywhere. There’s so many players in that defense, and it’s tough to overcome.

  5. Dusty Baker:

    This guy, when he’s on he’s like a one-man wrecking crew, we did pitch him tough and I’m sure that he’s going to make the adjustment when we go out there very soon.
