If the FBI knew, or suspected, there was Russian interference going on, and they were wanting Trump to win, it makes sense to infiltrate his campaign. Why would that even be an odd thing or a partisan thing to do?

In fact if they didn't, they were shirking their duties. They may have had more knowledge before the last election that could have been released.
