This is called overriding the president's veto. An override requires that 2/3 of both houses of Congress vote for the bill.

Does the US president have any right to legislate?

Absolutely not. The constitution is very clear about that: the President can ask, suggest, bully or beg Congress to legislate, but only the Congress can write (and pass) a law. The president can veto any legislation he doesn't like, which makes it harder for Congress to pass it, but it is still possible to pass legislation over the President's objection.
