It's not a final yes/no. A two-thirds majority in both chambers can overrule the presidential veto. For example:

True, but even in either party's most wildest predictions, a supermajority in the House or Senate is vanishingly unlikely.

I guess there's a chance Trump will do something so horribly unpopular that there will be extreme bipartisan support for limiting his power in some ways. But I'm not sure I'd rely on that either.
