So you don't actually have anything to say except that you like Atlas's self-promoting tweet and you don't like sources that don't confirm your assumptions.

Is that about it?
Pretty much. If you look at Atlas's polls through the year they were the closest

I'm not here to prove your point. That's your job. Pony up some hard data, or accept that all that you have done is made a claim based on your favorite pollster's tweet.
You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how you reached it.

Atlas hit the national vote really close. Seeing as there have been three Republican Electoral Vote victories in the past seven presidential elections, but only one popular vote majority, getting the national vote correct isn't as important as correctly forecasting the swing state voting.
With swing state voting, Atlas screwed the pooch, getting Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania wrong - almost as bad as Trafalgar. I say almost because Atlas didn't poll as many swing states as Trafalgar. And those few states that Atlas did pick for Trump, their forecasts were way off from the actual vote percentages. And I say few states because Atlas has very few presidential state polls listed on their web site.
Bottom line - Atlas Intel SUCKS at polling, except when they do their final national poll.

That's the fact.
They did fine on Ohio, Texas, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. Not great in Florida. They were spot on in Michigan; no idea why you're saying they got it wrong. They were 2.3 points off on Pennsylvania, which is better than many of 538's highly-rated polls (just go down this list and see for yourself: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com.../pennsylvania/).
No idea why you're going down this route; you're making yourself look more dishonest with every post you make.
