re: Protectionism vs. Free Trade

What policy proposals by Trump are protectionist?
Who should we protect in trade deals? The workers or the corporations? Is it possible to have a balance, aka a fair trade deal?
Why do we even need a trade agreement for free trade? It would seem to me that true free trade only involves a buyer and seller not a third party.
FWIW, your trade deal at Target is not truly free. Both you and Target have to pay a tariff to your local, state and federal governments.
