WASHINGTON — Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), a close ally of President Donald Trump's, threw cold water on the president's latest attempt to prosecute one of his political foes in an exclusive interview with Raw Story Raw Story caught up with Johnson on Capitol Hill on Wednesday and asked him about the indictment that Trump's Department of Justice returned against former FBI Director James Comey. Johnson went along with the idea, although he acknowledged that it was unlikely to yield any substantive results. "I don't think there will be a conviction," Johnson told Raw Story. The three-page indictment against Comey stems from a picture he posted on his Instagram page of seashells arranged to read "86 47," a phrase that some people on the right have said is a veiled threat. The indictment charges Comey with two felonies, one for threatening the president's life and the other for interstate communication violations. Comey has denied all wrongdoing. Even though Johnson said there likely won't be a conviction, he added that Comey should pay an "enormous legal price." "The harm of what he did is almost incalculable," Johnson said about Comey's post. "They should pay an enormous legal price." "They put this country through the kind of political turmoil, investigations, and impeachments that Russia and China could only dream of," Johnson said. "What's the legal price they gotta pay for that harm?"
