President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday dismissed the mounting signs that he remained a highly unpopular political figure, slamming polls showing him to have a historically low approval rating for an incoming president.
"The same people who did the phony election polls, and were so wrong, are now doing approval-rating polls. They are rigged just like before," Trump tweeted.

In case Trump missed it, the polls were within 1% nationally. Guess facts don't matter again.

I think everyone now understands the con job after seeing his cabinet appointments

Thanks for playing
And 81% of independents are democrats who are too embarrassed to admit it
The story isn't that by the time of the election the polls had tightened to fool the hondo's of the world, the story is the polls showing hillary up by double digits headed to an electoral college landslide for most of 2016
This is a similar method.

Most polls were well within their margin of error by election day. Hillary won the popular vote by 2.1%.
I highlighted the ones that were outside of +-3%.
It looks to me that most polls overvalued the impact of Johnson and Stein. Both performed way under what they were polling. Both Clinton and Trump got a higher percentage than originally predicted.
Electoral college models definitely weren't accurate, but even then we are talking about a couple tenths of a percent in a handful of states.
Regardless, the 1000 person sample is pretty representative of how Americans currently identify with political parties. The latest Gallup poll has it as Rep:28%, Dem: 25%, Ind:44%.
Nate Silver at least brought up the possibility.

Hillary actually won the popular by more than 2.1% look at the total, she only won by 2.1 million there when the final tally was 2.9 million. So really the polls were closer than RCP notes.
