She knew she was being manipulated, but decided to go ahead with the wedding anyways. did you watch the show?

Had Cagalli been older and more experienced than she wouldn't have been so easy to manipulate or wouldn't have questioned herself so much. That and the people and politicians would have more faith in her rule and would have supported her more over Yuna's party. Another thing to remember is that all the stress of ruling was piling up and Cagalli who just wanted it all to end or for the load to lighten up. Yuna promised that he would take care of everything after their marriage which is very tempting to anyone that is desperately looking for a way out or anyone to support them when they're all alone.

Had Athrun managed to pierce Kira's plot-armor and killed him in episode 30 we wouldn't have Destiny, Had Rau been a good guy we wouldn't had a nuclear war going on at the end of Seed, Had Fukuda/Morosawa turned in the scripts in time we wouldn't have a show based on stock footage!
Cagalli gave it her everything, she was willing to give up her own life to make sure ORB wasnt burned down to the ground again, that hardly seems to be sign of someone being selfish like you try to make it look like.

Cagalli was never meant to rule ORB at such a young age, her Father hadn't planned on dying so soon, hence why he seemed content letting Cagalli rebel a bit before breaking her back into reality and getting her ready for her roll. Only that time never game due to what happened in SEED.

Cagalli had more than enough life lessons in SEED, Arguments between her VA and Fuku/Moro sealed her deal in Destiny.

They also have material from the SEED Destiny movies/specials that they could pull as well. Helps those are mostly about Athrun so they could be fit nearly anywhere.

Destiny didn't suffer from a lack of time, it was suffering from horrible directors and rewrites, scripts being turned in late
forcing animators to take short-cuts to be done in time. Morosawa and Fukuda is to blame for the later parts of Destiny being a shitfest. Stop making stuff up, the show had more than enough time to be written and finished in a good way, lol. Moro/Fuku screwed Destiny up, nothing and noone else screwed it up.

See, that's never confirmed, but imo, heavily implied, seeing how he has no control over the real Lacus, and well, uh. Kinda made his own.
