Donald Trump's Warm Relationships With Democrats? Nancy Pelosi and Rahm Emanuel

Can Donald Trump survive a Republican primary explaining why he gave Rahm Emanuel $50,000 for his Mayoral campaign? Trump has real estate in Chicago. Getting on the "right " side of Chicago politicians could be life or death for property owners. But, Rahm Emanuel isn't the only politician Trump has a relationship with. Politico reports:
Donald Trump sent Nancy Pelosi warm wishes when she was sworn in as House Speaker in January 2007, praising her as "the best" in a personal note.

Trump, who’s now mulling a Republican run for president, penned the note on a copy of a New York Times article that chronicled Pelosi's swearing-in, and wrote, "Nancy — you're the best. Congrats. Donald," according to sources familiar with the missive.

Will Republican party activists overlook this? Just a reminder, Donald Trump was a top bundler for John McCain to the tune of $105,600 in the 2008 campaign?
