It was a publicity stunt. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy saw Republicans like Richard Nixon gain popularity through accusing Democrats of being "soft on communism," and he decided to imitate this.
Senator Joseph McCarthy's accusations during the early 1950s, which claimed that numerous communists and Soviet spies had infiltrated the U.S. government, were largely discredited. Investigations revealed that many of his claims were unfounded and based on flimsy evidence, leading to a loss of credibility for McCarthy. Ultimately, his tactics contributed to a climate of fear and paranoia but also prompted a backlash against his methods, culminating in his censure by the Senate in 1954. The era is now often seen as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unfounded accusations and political witch hunts.
