Well yeah, our textile industry is gone. How can you make something if there is no domestic industry to make it? After WWII our clothing was made domestically, ~97%. Today that is ~3%. That is a lot of available ability that is just gone, does not exist. Trump does order some of his manufacturing from the US, located in Los Angeles actually. He orders it from what is available.
Just like I use to build computers out of mostly components made in the US. That industry was pushed out. Now it's my fault I can only build a crap Chinese computer? Damn thing is probably littered with backdoors.
