Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump tweeted out a poll Friday showing him trailing former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in a general election matchup.
The poll, conducted by One America News Network and Gravis Marketing, shows Trump falling to Clinton in a head-to-head matchup 51-49 percent. But nonetheless, Trump tweeted out a graphic of the poll, saying “THANK YOU!” and “#AmericaFirst” to his followers.

The same poll also shows Trump losing to Clinton when they polled “other” as well, with Clinton earning 48 percent to Trump’s 46 percent. Five percent of respondents backed “other.”
The poll was also conducted on May 10th — more than a month ago.
According to the latest RealClearPolitics average, Trump trails Clinton by nearly 6 percentage points. All eight polls in the average show Clinton leading by at least 3 points, with the former secretary leading by at least 12 points.
