Political career
Alexandre Frota has been politically active, having, according to him, founded the Free Brazil Movement (this fact is questioned in the courts). He has been also involved with the "Non-partisan School" movement.
In May 2016, he filed a petition for impeachment against Dilma Rousseff, and supported the president's impeachment.
In May 2018, he supported the strike by truck drivers in Brazil.
Frota was elected federal deputy from the state of São Paulo in the 2018 Brazilian general elections by Social Liberal Party (PSL).
After disrupting his support for President Jair Bolsonaro and abstaining himself from the second round of the voting for the pension reform, the national directory decided to expel him in August 2019, as confirmed by the party's president and also federal deputy, Luciano Bivar.
On August 16, 2019, Frota joined the Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB) at the invitation of the Governor of São Paulo, João Doria.
Frota announced his campaign for President of the Chamber of Deputies in the 2021 election promising to open Bolsonaro impeachment trial if elected. However, he resigned and did not register his application on the day.
