CHICAGO — America's Communist Party concluded its national
convention seemingly united on two themes: that they are a
significant ally of the increasingly powerful left wing of the
Democratic Party and that a viable future remains for the
Communist Party USA.
 
As to the question of whether the CPUSA emerges in control or is
absorbed into the broader socialism movement peppering the
platforms of Democrats running for president in 2020, officials
expressed confidence that the red star of their party will
continue blazing.
 
In the meantime, all goals should be subsumed by one: defeating
President Trump, CPUSA Chairman John Bachtell said in his
keynote address.
 
"The aim is to oust Trump and the Republican Senate majority,
defend the Democratic House majority, and break the GOP
domination of governorships and state legislatures, which
includes supporting candidates from their ranks, including
communists," Mr. Bachtell said.
 
Since the days of Vladimir Lenin, still revered as the father of
Bolshevism, Communists have reveled in the vitriol they hurl at
political opponents — and Mr. Bachtell did not disappoint.
 
"He has no morality, no heart and no soul," he told the roughly
300 delegates who gathered for the party's national convention.
"Trump is a gangster masquerading as president."
 
In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Times, Mr.
Bachtell reiterated that the modern Communist Party is not
seeking a violent revolution.
 
"I feel very strongly it has to be peaceful, it has to be
accomplished politically," he said.
 
Such views appear to clash with "The Communist Manifesto," the
1848 political pamphlet by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels that
explicitly calls for the "violent overthrow of the bourgeoisie."
 
With a rueful smile, Mr. Bachtell acknowledged that there are
hard-liners in the party who would relish some broken glass and
bloodshed. These devout Communists think the current line is
squeamish, but they stand well apart from the majority, who
instead see a unique opportunity, he said.
 
"We're growing — not like the Democratic Socialists of America
by any means — but our rate of growth has doubled since Trump
got elected," Mr. Bachtell said without revealing specific
figures for membership and funding.
 
"The party needs to fit in to the more developed political
scene, and we have some unique things we bring to the table," he
told The Times. "The working class can't do it alone. It needs
allies, and we bring a direction, a unity, tools for the
movement."
 
Just how much the movement seeks those tools is unclear. Despite
the enormous gains of the notion of "socialism" among the
national electorate, particularly among the younger set, the
idea of "communism" carries an aura of violence, totalitarianism
and history.
 
Mr. Bachtell acknowledged that image, which he and scores of
convention delegates were at pains to dispel this weekend.
 
To be sure, the delegates could not offer a current or
historical example of communism that had not degenerated into a
human rights and economic disaster, but scores of them, along
with Mr. Bachtell, said they do not see themselves as any
continuation of Soviet Russia's Josef Stalin, Cambodia's Pol Pot
or Peru's Shining Path.
 
"The perception that communism equates totalitarianism is still
prevalent and a pressure pushing the party to the margins," Mr.
Bachtell said. "We are still perceived by many as illegal or
tied to the Soviet Union and past models of socialism. Many of
our members don't feel comfortable being public. Some labor and
community leaders and elected officials fear publicly
associating with us."
 
Mr. Bachtell is not seeking another term as chairman, and party
leaders elected at the convention will choose the next one. He
was far from the only delegate emphasizing a disavowal of
violence and of lust for totalitarian power.
 
"I do not see it that way, no," said Earchiel Johnson, 32, the
shop steward and an information technology chief at The People's
World, the website that has replaced the party's longtime
newspaper, The Daily Worker.
 
Mr. Johnson said he believes any sort of shining future with
communism in the U.S. would be new. He sees it as an evolution
as much as a revolution.
 
As the convention unfolded, many older delegates rose and spoke
to the room and younger delegates in what they clearly hoped
were evocative messages of the party's strength, hitting on the
Communist Party USA's centennial this year.
 
"We have fought for 100 years now against the most powerful
ruling class in history which tried to destroy us," said Jarvis
Tyner, a New York Communist who twice ran for vice president on
the party ticket in the 1970s and chaired its centennial
committee. "That is a remarkable thing."
 
Despite the party's longevity, uncertainty cloaked the members
at the convention. While the delegates were cognizant that
socialism's surging popularity has not spilled over into
outright communism, most of them seemed certain that the final
victory over the hated "capitalist exploiters" would come only
with the party having a seat at the table.
 
Mr. Bachtell, for instance, made it clear he was operating on
the capitalist principle that past performance is no guarantee
of future results.
 
"We're the ones we've been waiting for," he said in his keynote
speech. "And we're the ones who will lead the fight to expand
democratic rights and save the planet. And we're the ones who
will bring into being a radically new kind of society free of
exploitation, hate and inequality."

Notre Dame's stern rebuke of former football coach Lou Holtz's
speech at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night
was a warranted stiff-arm.
 
Given Notre Dame's political straddling as a Catholic
university, it was extraordinarily bold for the Rev. John
Jenkins, the university president, to release a statement
distancing the university from Holtz, who endorsed President
Donald Trump for reelection.
 
Holtz, of course, has the right to endorse any candidate he
likes. Holtz's background as a successful coach is the reason he
was invited as a noted speaker to back Trump.
 
But when Holtz blasted protesters against police brutality, he
criticized many of his former players.
 
"There are people today, like politicians, professors,
protesters and, of course, President Trump naysayers in the
media, who like to blame others for problems," Holtz said in a
recorded RNC speech. "They don't have pride in our country and —
because they no longer ask, 'What can I do for my country?' only
what the country should be doing for them — they don't have
pride in themselves. That's wrong."
