I think it very likely that most of the US government is cheering a devalued dollar; weak dollar = significantly increased exports, and jobs. America really, really needs both of those right now. What's clear in the last few years is that nobody is going to shoot missiles or send troops over currency devaluation; this is a relatively simple way to boost your own country's economic strength. Since we're more decentralized than say, China, those who'd like devaluation can't just mandate it, but I'd be stunned if a weak dollar is seen as a bad thing by the current Administration.
