Albert Mohler Jr., president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, stated in a podcast episode of “The Briefing” on Monday that all Americans regardless of politics should be relieved that the president was not found guilty.

“As a nation, we should breathe a sigh of relief that the sitting president of the United States has not been charged with actions that were at the expense of his own country. That should be a matter of relief, not a frustration,” said Mohler.

Mohler added that, based on what the report found, Americans should maintain a “grave concern” over Russia’s criminal involvement in the 2016 election.

“What the American people deserve and need right now is the president of the United States on the other side of the closure of this investigation, leading the national and international effort to prevent Russia from successfully involving itself in any American election anywhere, anytime,” continued Mohler.

“Right now that is a responsibility that can be born and must be born only by the president of the United States who should now be able to do so backed up with the moral authority of the conclusions of the Mueller report.”
