They can override a veto with 2/3 majority.
However: they can't override a veto that hasn't occurred yet. President can sit on this until Jan 3... When the bill dies due to the end of the congress.
Anything beyond that becomes extra-constitutional...
Seems a good plan.
I don't know if it was planned on Trump's part... But the best thing he can do when it comes to this steaming pile of a bill is to just... Sit on it.
