Is there any geological evidence of a massive tsunami ever hitting the east coast of North America? We know of many in Japan, Hawaii and elsewhere in the Pacific and it has become part of different cultures and myths. But what about in the Atlantic?
The Tsunami of 1929

Ok. This was the result of a large earthquake quite close to the disaster area. Anything from much much farther away?

The 1929 tsunami came from an undersea quake about 165 miles away. That is more believable than a landslide over three THOUSAND miles away having enough energy to create tsunamis along a multi-thousand mile arc.
