That is if we do not get our shit together and get a popular muscular reform champion to run against them and overcome the vote rigging they plan on doing.
The rich people supporting him will get it worse than anyone, at some point they will start accusing them and seizing their assets, at first those that crossed the party, later seizing assets will be the end in itself.

If you want to save liberal democracy as a concept, we have to deeply, deeply reform the West.
