Real estate mogul and potential presidential hopeful Donald Trump sent Rep. Nancy Pelosi warm wishes and called her “the best” in a personal note he sent her in 2007, right as she was sworn in as Speaker of the House, a fact that some media analysts say could hurt him in the Republican primary. Trump doesn’t seem phased by the speculations, however. He told Politico that his note had nothing to do with political support for Pelosi or the Democratic party. “I want her to do great, and I want this country to be great, and I [didn’t] want her to fail as Speaker. And I like her,” he said, later concluding the interview by saying, “I want her to do a great job for the country, not for her party.”
