LOL!! Congress has until Jan 3rd to vote on an override. In that period Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Day are all federal holidays. Trump may decide to declare New Year's Eve a federal holiday, too. That's 10 days commencing Christmas Eve -- if I remember what I read correctly, the time to override a veto excludes Sundays.. Take out 2 Sundays and 3 holidays, and that leaves 5 workdays for Congress before they adjourn on Jan 3rd (a Sunday). Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, and Sat. Congress will have to do all the administrative BS required to call a vote, force a quorum to show up, then get a super-majority to vote to override, and all of it between the biggest holidays of the year!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Swamp Critters!! This NDAA bill should have \never been back-burnered ... again. They always create a crisis by delaying the bills, then rush them through so nobody can know what is in it - just like they did the ACA.
Trump stuck the fork in them, and now he's slowly turning it. Congress spent 4 years going after him. I don't begrudge him a single ounce of what he's doing. I think he's going easy on them myself, all things considered.
