Every complaint I've heard about Schiff has been bullshit. Maybe there's a good one out there I've missed. It's just an effort to delegitimize someone who threatens the President.

Whether it is or it isn't bullshit is immaterial. This is
not about facts. This is a game. If I'm playing this game, and my aim is to take out Trump, I want to make this about the substance of the call, not the prosecutor. The best way to do that is to have multiple Democrats speak about the investigation - spread the responsibility around, in a sort of "decision by committee" manner that obscures responsibility and individual actions. This blunts any attempt by Trump to create a referendum on Schiff.
