Under what condition can a vetoed bill become law without the President's signature?

Explanation:
When a vetoed bill can still become law without the President’s signature, it’s because Congress can override that veto with a two-thirds vote in each chamber. That supermajority requirement ensures there’s broad support across the Legislature, not just a simple majority, and then the bill becomes law despite the President’s opposition. The other scenarios don’t fit: losing the presidency ends the current veto power, a Supreme Court ruling addresses constitutionality rather than overriding a veto, and a national referendum isn’t how federal laws are enacted in the United States.
