Elementary fallacy here:

...The renminbi is pegged to the dollar, so the U.S. currency's slide this
year has made Chinese exports even cheaper...

Cheaper, yes--but not against the dollar-denominated US products! Indeed, if there is any effect at all it would be to divert Chinese exports to non-dollar areas and thereby *lessen* China's trade surplus vis-a-vis the US.
