Override of a veto - The process by which each chamber of Congress votes on a bill vetoed by the President. To pass a bill over the president’s objections requires a two-thirds vote in each Chamber.

The Republicans do not have 67 Senators nor 290 Representatives in the House.

No they do not. Overriding a veto takes a 2/3 vote.
