One of my biggest concerns; that whoever replaced Nancy would be even worse.
Election denier Hakeem Jeffries could replace Pelosi as House Dem leaderThe leading candidate to replace Nancy Pelosi as the next House Democratic leader is a 2016 election denier who openly argued that former President Donald Trump was an "illegitimate" president.

He often made statements about Trump's 2016 victory that are similar to claims Trump made about the 2020 race being stolen.
"The more we learn about 2016 the more ILLEGITIMATE it becomes," Jeffries tweeted from his congressional account in 2018. "America deserves to know whether we have a FAKE President in the Oval Office."
"History will never accept you as a legitimate president," Jeffries tweeted from his personal account about Trump in 2020.
Jeffries also claimed Trump cheated in the 2016 election, alleging Trump may be "a Russian asset."
