If he is seen as interfering in any way, it could easily backfire against both his reputation and Democratic chances in this election. Also, if the FBI is forced to make public their findings, they might easily use it as an excuse to open up everything, including the previous investigation, which Comey shut down in July. This would open up a whole can of worms, which will absolutely not be finished before the election.
