Just look at the trade deficits that we are running. I guess it’s all right for these firms to call on the American taxpayer to pay to open up new markets for their products all over the world while they layoff American workers.

OK, let's say I'm looking at these deficits and think. "Boy these deficits are worse than a Mardi Gras bar tab!" Now what exactly is a US President supposed to do that doesn't A) Restrict foreign and domestic trade. B) Raise the prices paid by consumers for all of these companies' goods and services. and C) Abridge the rights of Free Speech and Free Association as enumerated in The Bill of Rights of The US Constitution?
