Senate Republicans voted to block President Donald Trump's Brazil tariffs, defying a warning from Senator John Vance that they would face 'severe consequences' if they did so amid the ongoing government shutdown. The vote marks a rare rebuke of Trump's trade strategy by Senate Republicans, who remain largely united in their support for him. The move is seen as a test of Republican unity and Trump's ability to wield influence over his party. The outcome could have significant implications for the future of Trump's trade policies.
