Why is McConnell rushing this acquittal vote in the Senate?

[kentuck]

It is obvious that they need more time for debate.

After they accused the Democrats of rushing the impeachment thru the House, McConnell puts it in passing gear and speeds up the process.

They should vote to postpone until they can get witnesses or documents. It is too important of a decision to rush into the way that McConnell and Trump want them to do.

Somebody needs to pull on his rein.

Yes, someone should pull on his reins. Unfortunately, every Republican senator seems to be afraid of him. Or they're complicit.
