> If he fails to sign or veto it then in about two weeks, it will automatically become law anyway.

This is inaccurate. If the president fails to sign a bill within 10 days (not including sundays) while congress is not in session then the bill does not become law. This is known as a pocket veto. Congress is out of session the next 2 weeks, so Trump does need to sign the bill for it to become law.
