Doesn't mention pizzagate, but so that the connection is stated: "Russian Hacking" > said to be the source for the emails of the DNC, Hillary Clinton and John Podesta released by Wikileaks > Podesta's emails contain strange references to pizza and Comet Ping Pong > investigation into pizza, Comet Ping Pong and related avenues produced circumstantial evidence of pedophilia - pizzagate
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — President-elect Donald J. Trump, expressing lingering skepticism about intelligence assessments of Russian interference in the election, said on Saturday evening that he knew “things that other people don’t know” about the hacking, and that the information would be revealed “on Tuesday or Wednesday.”
He added: “And I know a lot about hacking. And hacking is a very hard thing to prove. So it could be somebody else. And I also know things that other people don’t know, and so they cannot be sure of the situation.”
When asked what he knew that others did not, Mr. Trump demurred, saying only, “You’ll find out on Tuesday or Wednesday.”

There are 2 major points, and people only talk about one of them.
The one everyone talks about is that the Democratic party was trying to sabotage one of their candidates and prevent them from getting the nomination - Bernie. The information that this was true was given to the public and may have influenced voters. This is what people talk about.
What no one is talking about is that the Republican party was trying to do the same thing. They were also trying to sabotage one of their candidates and prevent them from getting the Republican nomination - Trump. The fact that the Republican party was trying to prevent Trump from getting the nomination was given to the public, and may have influenced voters.
If it was soooo horrible for everyone to know that Bernie was being sabotaged, then it has to be equally horrible that Trump was.
Or he's going to announce that it was a disgruntled Bernie supporter who worked for the DNC that was the "hacker" who released the info to the public.

The difference is, everyone knew the Republicans were doing it. Conservatives have been fed up with their bullshit since...oh...Bush was president. Hence the Tea Party movement. I think most were surprised the GOP teamed up with Trump as quickly as it did - and forced cucks like Paul Ryan to fall in line. Republican voters laughed their party's two preferred choices right off the ticket. So no, it was not a horrible revelation.
