Why Is He Using the Communist Trump Card

Communist scare tactics return to U.S. politics as Trump revives Cold War rhetoric before the midterms. Explore the history and implications

Trump has run out of cards to play in the midterm elections, which is why he’s now talking about the “communist menace.”

He can’t talk about the economy, because prices continue to rise faster than wages, which means most Americans are getting poorer. He can’t talk about foreign policy, because his war in Iran has been a debacle, his tariffs are an utter failure, and he obviously hasn’t settled the war in Ukraine on “Day 1.” He can’t talk about immigration, because his raids and mass deportations have become so unpopular.

So, facing the midterm elections, what’s left?

ADVERTISEMENT

He’s resorting to the oldest of right-wing tropes — accusing Democrats (especially a rising generation of new, young, vigorous Democratic politicians) of being commies.

He kicked off America’s 250th anniversary celebrations last Friday with a speech at Mount Rushmore extolling American culture and warning of a resurgence of the “communist menace.” With the granite faces of four of his predecessors behind him, Trump took aim at what he called “radicals” and “extremists.”

“There is now a resurgence of the communist menace in our land, including from newcomers to our country who embrace ideas totally opposed to our way of life and our great success. You can be a communist, or you can be a patriot. You cannot be both.”

Oh, please.

For years, Trump has been trying to scare Americans about progressive Dems who advocate Medicare for All, universal childcare, free public higher education, and higher taxes on the super-wealthy to pay for them (all of which the rising young Democrats are advocating).

But he hasn’t gotten anywhere because these initiatives are supported by most Americans.

So now he’s throwing the commie label at the wall and seeing if it sticks.

Communism was the scare word used by right-wingers after World Wars I and II to crack the whip on the left. It provoked witch hunts and ruined careers.

It made former Wisconsin Senator Joe McCarthy a one-man bomb squad in the early 1950s, when he ridiculed the “pitiful squealing” of “those egg-sucking phony liberals” who “would hold sacrosanct those Communists and queers,” and forced American citizens to “name names.”

McCarthyism was a by-product of the Republican Party’s postwar effort to eradicate the New Deal. 

The GOP had portrayed the midterm election of 1946 as a “battle between Republicanism and communism,” and the Republican National Committee chairman claimed that the federal bureaucracy was filled with “pink puppets.”

Southern segregationist Democrats joined in the red-baiting. Mississippi senator Theodore Bilbo, a Klansman who filibustered to block anti-lynching legislation, described multiracial labor unions’ advocacy for civil rights as the work of “northern communists.” Representative John Elliott Rankin, a racist and antisemitic Mississippi Democrat who helped establish the House Committee on Un-American Activities, called labor unions’ Southern organizing campaign “a communist plot,” fearing it would result in more Black people voting. “We’re asleep at the switch,” he warned. “They’re taking over this country; we’ve got to stop them if we want this country.”

The red-baiting was temporarily successful. In the 1946 midterms, Democrats lost control of both chambers of Congress. Wisconsin sent Joe McCarthy to the Senate. California sent to the House a young Republican lawyer who had already figured out how to use red-baiting as a political tool: Richard Nixon. Four years later it sent Nixon to the Senate.

It’s likely that Trump’s earliest political memories are of Joe McCarthy’s red scare. Trump and I are the same age, and those are among my earliest memories.

On June 9, 1954, I sat at my father’s side on our living room couch watching the Army-McCarthy hearings. McCarthy had accused the U.S. Army of having poor security at a top-secret facility, hinting at communist subversion. He charged that one of the young attorneys on the staff of Joseph Welch, who was representing the Army, was a communist. The charge could destroy the young man’s career.

“Son-of-a-bitch!” my father shouted at McCarthy on television. I hid my head.

As McCarthy continued his attack on the young attorney, Welch broke in: “Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness.”

I was only 8 years old, but I was spellbound.

McCarthy didn’t stop attacking the young attorney.

“Son-of-a-bitch!” my father shouted, even louder.

At this point, Welch demanded that McCarthy listen to him. “Let us not assassinate this lad further, Senator,” he said. “You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?”

Almost overnight, McCarthy imploded. Welch had aroused the decency of the American people. 

McCarthy’s national popularity evaporated. Three years later, censured by his Senate colleagues, ostracized by his party, and ignored by the press, McCarthy drank himself to death, a broken man at the age of 48.

During those hearings, McCarthy’s chief counsel was Roy Cohn, who had gained prominence as the Department of Justice attorney who successfully prosecuted Julius and Ethel Rosenberg for espionage, leading to their executions in 1953.

After McCarthy’s downfall, Cohn reinvented himself as a power broker in New York who survived scandals, indictments, and accusations of tax evasion, bribery, and theft — eventually to become Trump’s mentor.

So of course Trump would reach for the communist scare card when he has no other cards left to play.

The problem for Trump is that the new stars of the Democratic Party whom Trump wants to defile have nothing whatsoever to do with communism. They barely have anything to do with socialism.

New York’s Zohran Mamdani, AOC, Seattle’s Katie Wilson, Colorado’s Melat Kiros, and dozens of others — including many who have won recent primaries — are popular because they’re taking on corporate America, attacking political corruption by big money, and dealing with the real problems of ordinary Americans.

Labels are becoming irrelevant, anyway. In an Axios-Generation Lab poll of young Americans, 67 percent say they have a positive or neutral association with the word “socialism” compared with 40 percent who are positive or neutral toward “capitalism.” A new national survey from the Cato Institute finds Zoomers more supportive of socialism (53 percent) than capitalism (45 percent).

I can understand Gen Z’s growing disillusionment with capitalism. They can’t afford a home of their own. They struggle to afford health insurance. The job market is horrendous. They can’t afford to start a family. In many ways, capitalism — or whatever you want to call our current system — has failed them. And they’re the future of America.

So I doubt Trump’s resurgent red-baiting is going to help Republicans in the midterms.

To the extent Americans are thinking about the American system as a whole, they seem more concerned about Trump’s self-dealing than about socialism or communism. That same new Cato poll finds 56 percent of Americans worried that the U.S. could stop being a free country within the next 50 years because of corruption and abuses of power at the highest reaches of government.

Trump himself has no ideology, of course. He doesn’t give a fig about capitalism, and he’s not worried about communism or socialism. He’s a fanatical practitioner of narcissism, of the especially malignant variety.

¿Por qué está usando la carta Trump comunista?

Donald Trump se ha quedado sin cartas que jugar de cara a las elecciones de medio mandato, y por eso ahora vuelve a hablar de la “amenaza comunista”.

No puede hablar de la economía, porque los precios siguen aumentando más rápido que los salarios, lo que significa que la mayoría de los estadounidenses es hoy más pobre. No puede hablar de política exterior, porque su guerra en Irán ha sido un fracaso, sus aranceles no han dado resultados y, evidentemente, no puso fin a la guerra en Ucrania “desde el primer día”, como prometió. Tampoco puede hacer de la inmigración su principal argumento, porque sus redadas y deportaciones masivas se han vuelto cada vez más impopulares.

Entonces, ante las elecciones de medio mandato, ¿qué le queda?

Ha recurrido a uno de los recursos más antiguos de la derecha: acusar a los demócratas —especialmente a una nueva generación de políticos jóvenes, enérgicos y en ascenso— de ser comunistas.

El viernes pasado inauguró las celebraciones por el 250.º aniversario de Estados Unidos con un discurso en Mount Rushmore, en el que exaltó la cultura estadounidense y advirtió sobre un resurgimiento de la “amenaza comunista”. Con los rostros de granito de cuatro de sus predecesores como telón de fondo, Trump dirigió sus críticas contra lo que llamó “radicales” y “extremistas”.

“Ahora estamos viendo un resurgimiento de la amenaza comunista en nuestro país, incluso por parte de personas recién llegadas que abrazan ideas totalmente opuestas a nuestra forma de vida y a nuestro gran éxito. Puedes ser comunista o puedes ser patriota. No puedes ser ambas cosas.”

Por favor.

Desde hace años, Trump ha intentado sembrar el miedo entre los estadounidenses presentando como una amenaza a los demócratas progresistas que promueven Medicare para Todos, el cuidado infantil universal, la educación superior pública gratuita y un aumento de impuestos para los ultrarricos con el fin de financiar esos programas; propuestas que hoy también impulsa esa nueva generación de líderes demócratas.

Pero no ha logrado mucho, porque la mayoría de los estadounidenses apoya esas iniciativas.

Por eso ahora vuelve a lanzar la etiqueta de “comunista” para ver si esta vez logra que tenga efecto.

Después de la Primera y la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el comunismo fue la palabra utilizada por la derecha para infundir miedo y desacreditar a la izquierda. Esa estrategia dio pie a auténticas cacerías de brujas y destruyó innumerables carreras.

También convirtió al exsenador por Wisconsin Joe McCarthy en una fuerza política temida a principios de la década de 1950. McCarthy ridiculizaba los “patéticos chillidos” de “esos falsos liberales chupahuevos” que, según él, “consideraban intocables a esos comunistas y homosexuales”, mientras obligaba a ciudadanos estadounidenses a “dar nombres”.

El macartismo fue una consecuencia del esfuerzo del Partido Republicano de la posguerra por desmantelar el New Deal.

El Partido Republicano presentó las elecciones de medio mandato de 1946 como una “batalla entre el republicanismo y el comunismo”, y el presidente del Republican National Committee llegó a afirmar que la burocracia federal estaba llena de “títeres rosados”.

Los demócratas segregacionistas del sur también se sumaron a la campaña de acusaciones de comunismo. El senador por Mississippi Theodore Bilbo, miembro del Ku Klux Klan que recurrió al filibusterismo para bloquear leyes contra los linchamientos, describía la defensa de los derechos civiles por parte de sindicatos multirraciales como obra de “comunistas del norte”. El representante John Elliott Rankin, un demócrata de Mississippi abiertamente racista y antisemita que ayudó a crear el House Committee on Un-American Activities, calificó la campaña de organización sindical en el sur como “un complot comunista”, temiendo que diera lugar a un mayor número de votantes afroamericanos.

“Estamos completamente distraídos”, advirtió. “Se están apoderando de este país; tenemos que detenerlos si queremos conservarlo”.

Durante un tiempo, esa estrategia de etiquetar a los adversarios como comunistas dio resultado. En las elecciones de medio mandato de 1946, los demócratas perdieron el control de ambas cámaras del Congreso. Wisconsin envió a Joe McCarthy al Senado. California eligió para la Cámara de Representantes a un joven abogado republicano que ya había descubierto cómo convertir el anticomunismo en un arma política: Richard Nixon. Cuatro años después, California lo envió al Senado.

Es probable que los primeros recuerdos políticos de Donald Trump estén ligados precisamente al pánico anticomunista impulsado por Joe McCarthy. Trump y yo tenemos la misma edad, y esos también figuran entre mis primeros recuerdos.

El 9 de junio de 1954, estaba sentado junto a mi padre en el sofá de la sala viendo por televisión las audiencias entre el Ejército y McCarthy. El senador había acusado al Ejército de Estados Unidos de mantener deficientes medidas de seguridad en una instalación ultrasecreta, insinuando que existía infiltración comunista. Después señaló a uno de los jóvenes abogados del equipo de Joseph Welch, representante legal del Ejército, acusándolo de ser comunista. Esa acusación podía destruir la carrera del joven.

“¡Hijo de puta!”, le gritó mi padre a McCarthy desde la sala de nuestra casa. Yo agaché la cabeza.

Mientras McCarthy continuaba atacando al joven abogado, Welch lo interrumpió.

“Hasta este momento, senador, creo que nunca había comprendido realmente el alcance de su crueldad y de su temeridad.”

Yo tenía apenas ocho años, pero estaba completamente cautivado por lo que veía.

McCarthy no dejó de atacar al joven abogado.

“¡Hijo de p*ta!”, volvió a gritar mi padre, esta vez con más fuerza.

En ese momento, Welch le exigió a McCarthy que lo escuchara.

“No sigamos asesinando el carácter de este joven, senador”, dijo. “Ya ha hecho suficiente. ¿Es que no tiene ningún sentido de la decencia?”

Prácticamente de un día para otro, McCarthy se vino abajo. Welch logró despertar el sentido de decencia del pueblo estadounidense.

La popularidad nacional de McCarthy se evaporó. Tres años después, censurado por sus colegas en el Senado, marginado por su propio partido e ignorado por la prensa, murió por alcoholismo a los 48 años, convertido en un hombre derrotado.

Durante esas audiencias, el principal asesor legal de McCarthy era Roy Cohn, quien había alcanzado notoriedad como abogado del Departamento de Justicia al lograr la condena por espionaje de Julius y Ethel Rosenberg, que culminó con su ejecución en 1953.

Tras la caída de McCarthy, Cohn reinventó su carrera como un poderoso operador político en Nueva York. Sobrevivió a escándalos, acusaciones formales y señalamientos por evasión fiscal, soborno y robo, hasta convertirse, con el tiempo, en el mentor de Donald Trump.

Por eso no sorprende que Trump recurra nuevamente al fantasma del comunismo cuando ya no le quedan otras cartas por jugar.

El problema para Trump es que las nuevas figuras del Partido Demócrata a las que intenta desacreditar no tienen absolutamente nada que ver con el comunismo. Incluso su relación con el socialismo es bastante limitada.

Políticos como Zohran Mamdani, de Nueva York; Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC); Katie Wilson, de Seattle; Melat Kiros, de Colorado; y decenas de otros, incluidos muchos que recientemente ganaron elecciones primarias, son populares porque enfrentan el poder de las grandes corporaciones, denuncian la corrupción política impulsada por el dinero y buscan resolver los problemas reales que enfrentan los estadounidenses comunes.

Además, las etiquetas ideológicas cada vez importan menos. Una encuesta de Axios-Generation Lab entre jóvenes estadounidenses encontró que el 67% tiene una opinión positiva o neutral sobre la palabra “socialismo”, frente al 40% que expresa una percepción positiva o neutral del “capitalismo”. Otra encuesta nacional del Cato Institute reveló que la Generación Z muestra un mayor respaldo al socialismo (53%) que al capitalismo (45%).

Puedo entender por qué la Generación Z se siente cada vez más desilusionada con el capitalismo. Muchos no pueden comprar una vivienda propia. Les cuesta pagar un seguro médico. El mercado laboral atraviesa enormes dificultades. Formar una familia resulta cada vez menos accesible. En muchos sentidos, el capitalismo —o como quiera llamarse al sistema actual— les ha fallado. Y ellos representan el futuro de Estados Unidos.

Por eso dudo que este renovado discurso anticomunista de Trump vaya a beneficiar a los republicanos en las elecciones de medio mandato.

En la medida en que los estadounidenses reflexionan sobre el sistema político y económico del país, parecen estar mucho más preocupados por los conflictos de interés y el beneficio personal de Trump que por el socialismo o el comunismo. Esa misma encuesta del Cato Institute encontró que el 56% de los estadounidenses teme que Estados Unidos deje de ser un país libre en los próximos 50 años debido a la corrupción y al abuso de poder en los más altos niveles del gobierno.

Trump, por supuesto, no tiene una ideología definida. El capitalismo le importa muy poco, y tampoco parece preocuparle el comunismo o el socialismo. Su verdadera convicción es otra: un narcisismo llevado a una de sus expresiones más extremas y dañinas.
