It still has to go through the Senate (where Paul and Lee will have a vote) and, should there be major differences in the versions, it would go through a conference committee and a re-vote before it even gets to Trump’s desk. So this is all a bit premature.
I do think Trump will have a hard time approving any FISA bill that doesn’t have safeguards to prevent them from doing what was done to him. Just my hunch.

True. But think of it this way... these senators know that the Republican caucus in the senate can get a little weak-kneed because there are 4 or 5 members who always seem to want to vote with the opposition. If you were Sens. Paul or Lee, wouldn’t it be ‘smart’ to try & get the President on record as to how he might use his veto? That clarifies their strategic options when things do get to the senate.
