infiltrate (Cambridge dictionary):
verb [ I + adv/prep, T ] uk /ˈɪn.fɪl.treɪt/ us /ˈɪn.fɪl.treɪt/
"to secretly become part of a group in order to get information or to influence the way that group thinks or behaves."
or
"to move slowly into a substance, place, system, or organization."
Actually, as for attacking the Democrats or helping them goes, it is a bit of each. CPUSA doesn't want to "take over" the Democrat Party. It wants to use it. And it wants to influence it. So it wants to "help" it win elections in order to have a viable political outlet to spread its agenda. It's like a more intelligent parasite which temporarily boosts its host in order to nourish itself on the stable healthy body until it is matured enough to thrive on its own. It can then discard its host and totally devour it and anything else that stands in its way. Eventually, the hope is the destruction of both the Democrats and Repbulicans, as well as any individualist, classically liberal, freedom loving, parties, notions or movements.
The CPUSA does not love the Democrats, whom it considers too corrupted by corporate money, nor wishes to become Democrats. It simply finds enough similarities, fellow travelers, and leftist trending politics in it and in the intellectual academic and media useful idiots that support it, to suit its purpose. The Republicans and libertarians have nothing to offer it, only total opposition.
The leftist trend of the Democrat Party has been spurred by the Marxist fellow traveler academics (most academicians teaching in the liberal arts) and by the journalists who have been educated by those professors. This has been going on for decades and is now bearing more and more socialist fruit. The total transformation of the Democrat Party into a purely socialist one is the long term aim of the of the Commies. Then, a fully Communist (devoid of errors of Stalinism or Maoism) egalitarian state, which is also devoid of capitalism, will be possible.
More and more Americans, especially the younger generations coming out of Marxist academe, are finding that idea attractive. The infiltration seems to be working.
