He may be the Republican presidential frontrunner, but Donald Trump admitted to Good Morning America Monday that he is also human.
"You have to be a little bit nervous, but you have to want to win," he said. And winning is what Trump does best, Trump said. "My life has been a life of success; it's been a life of winning."
But as a reality TV star and real estate mogul, Trump has never had to face voters, making Monday night's Iowa caucuses his first test as a politician. Trump continues to have the polls on his side, however, leading second-place Ted Cruz by seven points.
