What will be cheaper: Tariffs or "the right amount of funding"? I'm guessing tariffs will still be far less expensive than ramping up US-based manufacturing that can cover all the components/labor that was sourced in China. Long run, it might pay off, but you're betting that the next president (or even the current unpredictable president) won't go and roll back the tariffs before the investment has paid off.
