उत्तर
The statement “The American President can pigeonhole any bill” refers to the President’s power of pocket veto. If a bill is presented to the President and Congress adjourns within 10 days (excluding Sundays), and the President does not sign the bill, it automatically fails to become law. This power is called a pocket veto, and it allows the President to silently reject a bill without formally vetoing it.
