Criticising Abu Bakr and Umar makes you a kaafirread his statement again. he doesnt takfir zaidis. you have aproblem with making takfir on a set that holds beliefs like the Quran being distorted. the longlist of scholars who made takfir on their leaders' beliefs are not extremists. asharis maturidis hanbalis have all made takfir on their beliefs.
And among the Rafidah (Shia), if one prefers Ali – may Allah be pleased with him – over the three (i.e., Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman), then he is an innovator. And if one denies the caliphate of Abu Bakr or Umar, then he is a disbeliever.

imam fakhr al din az zaylaci medieval hanafi scholar:
Al-Margīnānī said: "It is permissible to pray behind a person who has desires and innovation, but it is not permissible behind a Rafidī (Shia), a Jahmī (who denies attributes of Allah), a Qadari (who denies divine predestination), a Mushabbih (one who anthropomorphizes Allah), or one who says that the Qur'an is created."

an nasafi a leading maturidi scholar:
Apostasy occurs by insulting the two Shaykhs, Abu Bakr and Umar, may Allah be pleased with them. He explicitly stated in the Khilāṣah and al-Bazzāziyyah that if a Rafidī insults the two Shaykhs or criticizes them, he becomes a disbeliever. And if he favors Ali over them, he is an innovator.

badr al aini:
In Sharh Bakr, the original answer is that anyone who is from the people of our Qiblah and does not act according to his statement is not judged as a disbeliever, and it is permissible to pray behind him. However, this does not apply if the people of his group have become disbelievers, such as the Jahmi, the Qadari who claims the creation of the Qur'an, the extremist Rafidi who denies the caliphate of Abu Bakr - may Allah be pleased with him, and the Mushabbih (those who anthropomorphize Allah). It is not permissible to pray behind them.
