When was the last time either House of Congress had a veto-proof majority? I don’t think it’s ever happened in my lifetime.

Congress overwhelmingly rejected President Barack Obama’s bid to derail legislation allowing families of the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to sue the government of Saudi Arabia, handing him the first veto override of his presidency during his final year in office.
The Senate took the first step Wednesday, voting 97-1 to override Obama’s veto of the 9/11 bill. The House quickly followed with a 348-77 vote.
You are probably correct in the formal sense of the word.
Unfortunately, the presence of RINOs makes it possible. I think Trump has already faced several of those situations.
The Dems had a filibuster proof 60 seat super-majority in the Senate after the 2008 election, until Ted Kennedy died and Scott Brown was elected to take his seat in early 2010, but not a 2/3 veto-proof super-majority. Of course, they did not need a veto-proof majority in either house of Congress when Obama was President.
LBJ had a bare 2/3s in both Houses after the 64 election.
