These wealthy bastards aren’t monolithic in their designs and policies to get what they want. The wealthy always get what they want, but they all don’t always want the same thing. The US has a two-party system because it is more effective at getting money from the wealthy. It has always been a grift controlled by the wealthy who are at power in the moment. All these wealthy competing interests are what actually decide everything on a policy level.
None of this is new either, it has been this way from the start. So yes, money absolutely controls the government and different factions of wealthy people can and will take over the helm. Freedom and democracy become lip service and anyone who is paying attention becomes disillusioned.
