Examples of contrasting in a Sentence

1. Matt Moscardi:

   It's not a coincidence that the day before Uber was expected to make a filing that investors are immediately contrasting it to Lyft and Lyft looks less attractive.

2. Barack Obama:

   No, obviously not, we have contrasting visions about what America is. And, you know, that's self-apparent. But what I would say is that the majority of Americans believe in that story. And there is power in that story.

3. Jeb Bush:

   I've got a story to tell and he doesn't and that's the difference. He kind of validated the weakness of his campaign. Now, having said that, what I feel uncomfortable about is that he's a great guy and he's my friend and I admire him, i think I'm more ready to be President. Part of this is comparing and contrasting. I don't feel good when a friend is getting beaten up. I don't feel good about it at all.

4. Erik Jones:

   They have completely contrasting messages, where Trump has argued for 'America first,' Emmanuel Macron is arguing for a kind of cosmopolitan globalist vision of France and of Europe, that is going to create very sharp contrast when the two meet in France.

5. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders:

   So my suggestion is, I think one of the reasons Donald Trump has been able to move so far to the right is that there is no primary opposition to Donald Trump, and I think it would do this country a good deal of service if people started thinking about candidates out there to begin contrasting what is a progressive agenda as opposed to what President Obama is doing, i think one of the reasons that President Obama has moved as far to the right as President Obama has is President Obama thinks President Obama can go all the way and no one will stand up to President Obama.
