Comey thinks of himself as somebody who is simply pursuing justice. To hear him tell it, he was in a no-win scenario with the Clinton email servers. If he had failed to say anything it would have been perceived as partisan.
That makes him neutral, pursuing crimes by both sides. Which means Trump sees him as an enemy.
(Note: I don't buy Comey's explanation. He dropped that investigation two weeks later. It had already been investigated, finding no problems worth prosecuting. So choosing that particular day does not seem neutral to me.)
