Trump reverses plan to broadcast execution of disabled Fort Hood shooter

US President Trump reportedly reversed a decision to live-broadcast the execution of Nidal Hasan, the 2009 Fort Hood shooter, after learning he is wheelchair-bound. The initial plan, announced by Defense Secretary Esper, was unprecedented and drew global shock; the reversal follows Trump's concern about appropriateness. This reflects Trump's impulsive decision-making on high-profile justice matters, but has no direct market impact.
