N.S.: I think the problem is that the elites have a murderous hatred for ordinary whites, and are pursuing a genocidal class war against them, which complements, up to a point, the genocidal race war blacks and browns are also waging on whites.
However, once whites officially become a minority, things are not only going to become horrible for ordinary ones, but for the white elites, too. We may see nationalization of industries, extreme "progressive" taxation, and the acceleration of racist violence against whites of all social strata.
By then, it will be too late for rich whites to have a come-to-Jesus moment, besides which, I don't expect them to have one. I expect rich whites to double down, telling black and brown supremacists, "We hate them as much as you do!" Not that it'll help them one bit.
Note that even Charles Murray, who claims to care about working-class whites (in "Fishtown") is so ambivalent, as to be worthless. Already in 2016, he hated Trump so much as to support Hillary by default, because he refused to support the only candidate who cared about the working-class whites.

The West's "Elites": They Aren't

In his discussion here of Sylvester Stallone's current "Rambo" film, Last Blood, Paul Kersey wrote:
Thus do the attacks on Last Blood as racist and "Trumpian" illustrate just how out of touch the elites are not only with average Americans but also with reality.
That succinctly characterizes conditions throughout the Western world.
Writing at National Review, John Fund has a brief article [The Longer Elites Ignore Populist Outcries, the More They'll Be Surprised, October 6, 2019] entirely on the theme of clueless elites. It contains this notable observation, keying on the immense opposition to immigration among non-elite Europeans:
Much of that anger stems from the fact that an educated elite increasingly controls the political process in Europe. They have little connection to many of the people they purport to represent. In Britain, only 3 percent of members of Parliament have ever labored in a working-class job, while 18 percent have no work experience outside politics.
Emphasis added. (See Charles Murray's "bubble quiz" from Coming Apart for more on this.)
Others have been making points with the same underlying theme. Writing at American Greatness in 2018, Christopher Roach summarized:
Today we have an aristocracy of opinion made up of the managerial elite. Their chief credential is their credentials, as well as their having professed the right opinions. Among this class, much of what passes for deep thinking—whether on economics, foreign policy, or anything else—is in fact a repetition of stale conventional wisdom. [What Good Is NATO?, July 16, 2018]
And Mark Steyn predicted in June that "this seesaw between a cultural nationalism and an ineffectual globalism by incompetent elites isn't going to go away anytime soon."
That's about right. Further, the word "elites" should nowadays nearly always be preceded by "incompetent" or "clueless."
