First Donald Trump/Kamala Harris Debate Set for Same Night as 2024 VMAs

The first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is set for Tuesday, Sept. 10, the same night as the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.

MTV announced Sept. 10 as the date of the 2024 VMAs way back on April 24 – but apparently “dibs” don’t count for much in the high-stakes world of presidential politics. (That show aired three full weeks before the first debate between President Reagan and former vp Walter Mondale, so there was no conflict.) An attempt on Trump’s life occurred on July 13, less than two hours before the Kids’ Choice Awards was scheduled to get underway in Santa Monica, Calif.
