Former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney backs US President Donald Trump’s decision to cancel the proposed livestream of Nidal Hasan’s execution. “I didn’t like that idea at all; I thought it was barbaric,” Mr Mulvaney told News24 host James Morrow. “There’s a lot of folks on the right, even if you support the death penalty, who didn't support the public live streaming. "Trump did the right thing … Trump listens to a lot of people; he knows better than most people I’ve ever met in politics.”
