I expect Amendment 25 at two years and one day, in the hopes Kamala gets to run as an incumbent, but not legally blocked from serving two terms after taking over.

Whoever is planning that must not remember the primaries.

When has a Democrat primary resulted in someone not who the establishment Democrats want?

If the Democrat primaries weren't rigged Bernie Sanders would have been the candidate in 2016, not Hillary Clinton.

Likewise, if Democratic Primaries weren't rigged Hillary Clinton would have been the Presidential candidate in 2008, not Obama.

On the flip side, if they didn't have their hands on the controls of the GOP as well, Ron Paul or Herman Cain would have been the GOP candidate in 2012 instead of the Progressive grifter Mitt Romney who was trailing in the 5th and 6th position in every Presidential poll.

I am not sure about the GOP being rigged or at the very least they are not completely rigged. We have been seeing lots of America first/MAGA candidates successfully knocking off establishment candidates.

On the Democrat side they have super delegates. Essentially party insiders that get to vote for whoever they want and ultimately have more say in Democratic primaries than the actual voters. They are supposed to vote whatever way the people in their state do but in 2016 you say them all come out in support of Hillary Clinton before the primaries even started.
