The presidential veto power explained

 

The veto occurs when a President objects to a bill or resolution. The President usually sends the bill back to Congress with a message explaining his objections; this is known as a direct veto. If the President withholds his signature during the 10-day review period allowed by the Constitution and Congress adjourns during that period, it is considered a “pocket veto” and the bill doesn’t become a law. The last pocket veto used by President Bill Clinton in December 2000.

 

Overriding a presidential veto requires a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate, as specified in Article 1, Section 7. Given the expected vote margin in the Senate, it is unlikely Congress will override the expected President Trump veto, so the veto will be sustained.
