McConnell and Ryan are teats on a bull, and only service the on going Plutocracy!
McConnell serves Trump, as Trump served him by giving McConnell's wife a job; Ryan's a quitter, who did the bidding for the Plutocrats at the expense of We the People, and will now retire to a well paying job on a conservative think tank or on the board of a global corporation.
Not one leader in The Congress will support and defend their mission as stated in the preamble to COTUS and exercise their power in Art. I, to stand up to Trumpism.
It is time for we the People to vote, and vote out the swamp creatures in both parties, critters who value their job as job #1. It's time to oppose Trump and his mission to be King and we need a strong Congress willing to stand up to power, and hold Trump accountable.
I assume your title to this thread was an attempt to bring reich wingers on board by attacking Pelosi & Schumer. Certainly you know that Democrats are not the majority in either house, and their hands are tied to do anything about Trumpism.
But not for long. Once Democrats take over one or both houses of congress, (expected this coming November) they will then have the power to impeach Trump. And that's exactly what they will do. Trump and Republicans have already admitted it, and in that, they have also admitted guilt. The Republican party is terrified of their Reich wing base which is why they have not reacted to Trump, except to offer their resignations, and like Paul Ryan to quit.

It’s Russia, Russia, Russia
Then you can read a book that will prepare you for the open public hearings & testimony. Directly thereafter the impeachment proceedings will begin.
Mueller has accumulated 5 guilty plea's, 19 Federal Grand Jury indictments, and another 90+ Federal Grand jury criminal charges that are certain to produce more. However, he will not hand this over to a Republican majority house that would just bury it. Nor does Mueller have the power to indict or impeach Trump.
So if you want to actually do something about Trump, you'll have to vote this coming November, and you'll have to vote for Democrats, who are not in least intimidated by the right wing of the Republican party.
Blue wave coming this November 2018
I will only vote for a Democrat in November, be assured. However, my point was not what you suggested. The D's need to offer a platform which is not all about attacking Trump&Co, he has already proved that he and Trumpism are unpopular with a vast majority of voters.
We need to hear what they will do if they become the majority in the H. of Rep, and even the Senate, and offer a proactive list of policies to repair, renew or replace aging infrastructure, fix what needs fixing in Obamacare, Reform the federal tax structure with targeted tax benefits to those who suffered in the Tax Bill passed and signed by Trump and assure our allies of continuing cooperation on issues of defense and protecting our planet. The D's need to offer a first iteration of a comprehensive immigration policy, and a humane method of securing our Southern Border. Repair our relationship with Canada and most importantly provide a check and balance to Trump and his efforts to legislate from the White House.
So why don’t you follow your own advice?
