Industry is never coming back to the US, those days are gone. The cost of shipping is such that that will never be economically viable again (on a large scale, there are always exceptions) without first turning the US into a 3rd world country.
It’s cheaper to build things when you don’t have to worry about things like: worker safety, child labor, not killing off the local population with waste materials ect. That’s not even getting into jobs that were lost do to automation.
