== Aftermath == In 1956, after [[Khrushchev Lied|Khrushchev's Speech]], there was reportedly an attempt to reinstate Browder in the CPUSA, but it failed. In 1957, Browder appeared on the Mike Wallace Show and said, "Getting thrown out of the Communist Party was the best thing that ever happened to me." He elaborated that the communist movement was "changing its character" and if he wasn't kicked out, he wouldn't know how to leave the movement.<ref name=":1">The Mike Wallace Interview. Earl Browder. https://web.archive.org/web/20091220124734/http://www.hrc.utexas.edu/multimedia/video/2008/wallace/browder_earl_t.html</ref> When asked about Khrushchev's plea for "[[peaceful co-existence]]" between capitalism and socialism, Browder was sympathetic, saying "I believe that he's trying to do a job in the direction of relaxing the tensions of the world."<ref name=":1" /> He gave the impression that Khrushchev didn't go far enough in subservience to the American capitalists: "I even then, all these years ago was preaching something more than he said today."<ref name=":1" /> He also criticized Khrushchev for supporting the "Hungarian regime" of Kadar (newly built after the [[Hungarian Uprising of 1956|Uprising of 1956]]).
