I think that's a big part of it, yes, that the GOP leans strongly toward both the wealthy and the highest privelege ethnicity.
Another part of it is that the conservative ideology includes the concept of making one's own way without help, for good or ill. So that's another subset wouldn't really protest much, since they don't generally call on government or society to provde something for them, even if they have a good right to it.
