Did Jesus attempt to save all, and fail?

Claim

Calvinism says if one person rejects salvation even though God provided atonement for that person, God failed. Is this true?

Refuting Calvinism

The precise goal of God was to make salvation available for all, not to force atonement / salvation on all. So in this case, Jesus did not fail, even if some reject the offer of salvation.

God's plan itself was to allow man the freedom to reject the offer.
