There is nothing temporary about H-1B’s and there are too many of them here.

You’re right and THIS is a major weakness of Trump’s. He simply has a blind spot on the subject. Sad!
Where are these skilled Americans? I refer again to the $100 million contract my shop gave to a big IT firm. They set up shop in Smyrna GA, Cobb County west suburb of Atlanta.
From May 2018 to Aug 2019 they brought in about 100 people, most employees but many contractors also (mostly TEK for them). Most were in the $100k- 120k per year range. Tops was about $350k. A few were in the 60K range.
I would rate about 5 of the 100 competent in IT. Unfortunately the competent few were not in management, which has a lot of turnover because they could not find competent management.
About 13 of the top 15 management they went thru were natural born citizens.
The 100 were a mix of Natural Born citizens (about 50-60%), 10% Naturalized citizens, 10%, Green care 10%, H1b 10%, illegals 10% (round percentages obviously).
Why could we not find competent IT workers?
