There are 2 scenarios for if Trump doesn't sign it.
1)Becomes law without signature (Congress in session): If the President does not sign or veto the bill within 10 days (excluding Sundays) of it being presented to him, it automatically becomes law, provided that Congress is still in session at that time.
2)Does not become law (Pocket Veto): If Congress adjourns its session before the 10-day period expires and the President has not signed the bill, it does not become law. This action is known as a pocket veto, and it cannot be overridden by Congress.
