I disagree. HRC did expect to win the election. The WashPo has reported that HRC and her inner circle, on the afternoon of Election Day, were popping champagne on her plane. I believe the decision to cancel the fireworks was was made by someone else and approved only reluctantly by HRC, who was persuaded that, even after she won, it would look arrogant that they hard ordered the fireworks ahead of time.
Everything I've read indicates that HRC and a few of her closest sycophants were in denial with how appealing Trump was to so many working and middle class people in the flyover states, while Bill Clinton understood that, which is why he was kept at arm's length from the inner circle.

Good point
