SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) - A kinder, humbler Donald Trump has emerged at a rally in Sioux City, Iowa.

Unseated as the front-runner in Iowa polls, the billionaire businessman and Republican presidential contender was practically begging voters for support at a rally Tuesday evening.

He urged those gathered to get his poll numbers up and said he thinks it's terrible being in second place.

Trump also overhauled his usual rally format by taking questions. He even descended from his podium and joined the audience so he could speak directly to a wounded veteran in a wheelchair.

It was his Trump's first appearance in the early-voting state since a series of polls showed him running behind retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson.

But Trump says he's still confident he'll win.
