Trump himself has said as much, on his only post election interview on Fox News. They believed their own polls, so the machinery that helped Obama in 2012 wasn't in place in 2016. Look into how, in PA, in some precincts, 100% of the votes were for Obama. That's statistically impossible for not one single Republican to vote out of thousands and thousands of votes.
If you recall, in 2016, they stopped counting in the middle of the night and didn't call states like PA for the LONGEST time. They were looking for votes, but didn't have the ballots prepped, etc. I remember distinctly Rush talking about this, and how after the Trump win, he was afraid that Obama wouldn't leave office. Huh, funny that.
