A quick Google would seem to suggest you're right. Or it suggests he's sympathetic to many of the Tea Party's aims.

So, the Tea Party's pro tariff? I wasn't aware of that. (I'm pro-tariff.) I thought they were knee-jerk free traders.

As for NAFTA, pretty much everyone's opposed to that and anything else that smells like it.

That won't stop the passage of the TPP though.
