What about foreign companies operating manufacturing facilities in the U.S.? (For the record, I work for a U.S. manufacturing company—don’t want anyone to get confused). Tax the snot out of them too?

I have not researched this but I would say most, but not all, of the products manufactured in the USA by foreign companies are for the US market. But I'll bet some of it is shipped back to the home country. My guess would be that they have to pay a tariff to import them back into there home country.

Obviously, no: it is in our national self interest to facilitate foreign companies who employ Americans. You know the difference as well as I do.
