Though if a congressional vote was held on the Qatari golden airliner, it’d pass along party lines, as no Republicans want to incur the wrath of the King. A few may hem and haw and express how troubled they are by the, ahem, highly irregular nature of this deal, but would ultimately wave it through. (Bonus: a handful of Democrats may vote to approve, out of an instinctual desire to reach across the aisle and build bridges or whatever.)
TBH, from a political standpoint, if this went through all the regular channels and procedures then I would at least be supportive of dropping the tariffs on SA. It's nice to have a middle eastern nation still willing to oppose Russia after all of this.
