Of course there is no explanation, and this is obvious truth. Manufacturing employment declines WORLDWIDE, and not because we outsource our manufacturing to little green men, but because of automation and rising productivity. So the pseudo-patriots (existing in every country, not an American invention) who cry for some protectionist measures to 'bring the jobs back' are talking nonsense.
