Yes, in fact, I was quite excited by the 2016 exit polls when I saw that unlike 2012, voters were choosing "Strong Leader" (Trump) over "Shares my values" (Clinton). I knew that was good for Trump and that it could be an interesting night.

It didn't really sink in until Chris Wallace said something to the effect of "I think we are now open to the possibility...Donald Trump could be the next President of the United States." Then came Ohio, North Carolina, Florida and Wisconsin all by 11:30pm. Unlike people watching other networks who didn't call Wisconsin, I knew he had the three+one blue state and had already won the election.

Yes but 2016 exit polls didnt even come close to showing a landslide defeat. What I mean are exit polls what show a double-digit defeat for your side or something close to it
