Jentezen Franklin, senior pastor of the multisite megachurch Free Chapel and an adviser to President Donald Trump, explained that he felt the news of Sessions' departure was not a surprise.

In an interview with The Atlantic that was published Wednesday, Franklin explained that he believed it "was obvious for a long time Jeff Sessions was on his way out."

"I think most of us in the faith community felt he was a good man, but not an effective attorney general," added Franklin.
