The institute was an early defender of Donald Trump.[4] After Joe Biden won the 2020 United States presidential election and Trump refused to concede, Claremont Institute senior fellow John Eastman aided Trump in his failed attempts to overturn the election results.[5][6] The institute publications in recent years have frequently published alt-right and far-right opinion pieces.[7][8]
