He cannot. The president can veto the bill, returning it to Congress without his signature. Congress can override the President's veto by a two-thirds vote of both the House and the Senate. If the Congress overrides the President's veto, it becomes law even if he doesn't like it. If the President refuses to enforce the law, he is violating his Constitutional oath to ensure that the laws will be faithfully executed, which would be an impeachable offense. Congress could then "fire" the President by removing him from office.
The President should and must have power to make certain decision without Congressional approval, just as Congress has the right to do things without the President's approval. If Congress had to approve everything a President did, Congress would have full authority over both the legislative and executive power of governmant, which would eliminate the concept of checks and balances of the three branches of government that the Constitution sets up.
Someone has to run the nation. The president is the person of the people. Without the president, who is going to think through all of the bills passed by congress? No one. Without the president, the country would be in turmoil because without a leader, the people are nothing.

President Reserve Call-up
To declare war, the President is supposed to get permission from Congress. But the President can order a "police action" that is equivalent to a war, without permission from Congress. This kills one of the "checks" Congress has over him.

It is important that the President and Congress work together because without them working together they cant make good decisions, because what they both do involves each other, and they have to work together to make a good decision. The president has to work with Congress, like Congress has to work with the president.

Yes. If the president vetoes a bill it goes back to the Congress. If both houses of Congress pass the bill again, but this time by a two-thirds majority, then the bill becomes law without the President's signature. Alternately, the President can sit on the bill, taking no action on it at all. If the President takes no action at all, and ten days passes (not including Sundays), the bill becomes law without the President's signature. However, if the Congress has adjourned before the ten days passes and without a Presidential signature, the bill fails. This is known as a pocket veto.
