Yes, but I'm realistic about the prospects of accomplishing that.
Textiles aren't coming back. Consumer electronics assembly probably isn't coming back (even if we manage to claw back chip fabbing from Korea and Vietnam, which frankly I'm not hopeful about).
Large appliance and furniture assembly we can probably claw back, as it only went south of the border.
A couple of billionaires who know logistics could get it done. Develop a new manufacturing city in a state with tax benefits and no minimum wage. Set up a distributed network to help franchise operators start their own small production lines and deliver straight to stores / ship to Amazon. Promote it as a new AMERICA FIRST industrial revolution to attract a built-in market of conservatives. Mike Lindell should have done that instead of creating a new store website.
Definitely some specialized items would always come from overseas, yeah.

The rest of your points are good, but the federal minimum wage makes that second part impossible. Of course that just changes the question to "which state are there where you won't have to pay higher than the federally mandated minimum?" instead.
We need a Bering Straits rail bridge.
It's technically possible, the maximum depth of the straits is barely 60 meters. We build oil rigs much deeper already.
We need to make things in America again.
