That’s not the party name, but you’re right on with the type of message or slogan it should have. The party of the true Americans. More flags. Reclaim patriotism. “We the people”, “We are America”. Something that explicitly makes everyone feel like they can belong to it.
I agree that it currently is that way, but I don’t think I do that it has to be. Hence why reclaiming is necessary. The meaning and symbolism of what it means is a powerful tool.
If an actually inclusive bunch of people start waving the flag and call themselves Americans they can redefine it.

Absolutely not, patriotism is just fancy nationalist cancer and “True American” messaging is a whisper away from anti-immigrant xenophobia.
