Apparently he is so well hidden, it is as if he doesn't exist. Poll analysis

Really, the issue is in the states. Nationally, 538 predicted in 2016 Clinton would win the popular vote by 3.6% and the results ended up by 2.09%. The forecast was off by an amount well within historical rates of error. But the Trump "overvote" compared to the 538 forecast in key states was
Iowa + 6.5 Ohio + 6.2 Wisconsin + 6.2 Maine + 4.5 Michigan + 4.4 North Carolina + 4.4 Pennsylvania + 4.4 Minnesota + 4.3 New Hampshire + 3.2
Any "Shy Trump" or voter demographic errors in those states had a huge effect, and it all worked in Trump's favor
In other states:
Florida + 1.8 Arizona + 1.1 Georgia + 1.1 Texas + 0.5 Virginia + 0.2 Nevada - 0.3 Colorado - 0.5
The forecast error was small. I wonder how much the errors have been corrected for this time in polling of the states where the error was larger in 2016?

In 2016 "they hardly knew him." And some were still ashamed.
