who would speak to the 'burning everything down' better than Schumer?

And if you did name someone, why would now be the time for them to assume leadership? Can you read the predictable corporate headlines about how "Democrats are in disarray"?

I say that we stay the course on party unity until the midterms, at the very least. Why?
Because we're getting millions of turnout in anti-trump protestors,
Hands Off = 3 million;
first No Kings = 5 million;
second No Kings = 7 million.

The midterms are usually bad for the incumbent party, so why not consider full support of leadership until then?
