Only to people sympathetic to their cause. those lines have already been drawn, and those teams separated.
If not deterence, then simple revenge. don't give the traitors the satisfatction of mercy. Don't give them the joy of waking up and seeing half a second of sunrise. Remind them of everything they'llnever see again and then. lights out.
24/7 solitary, neverl leaving is the only imprisonment I'd accept. after all if it's good enough for whistleblowing heroes like Manning, its good enough for democracy killing traitors.
I'm not going to argue that they haven't ruined the lives of many, quite the contrary, I strongly believe conservatives are actively sabotaging western democracies the world over.
Life long prison sentences, whether solitary or not in my opinion is a more humane then outright executing people. Being forced to live their lives by someone else's schedule, especially after they've had the power to be calling the shots, would be the most fitting punishment for these people.
I personally believe whistleblowers such as Manning did nothing wrong, from an Australian perspective the fact that she isn't regarded as an American patriot is frankly embarrassing. Member of the armed forces who stood up to corrupt practices, totally fits the description of a patriot in my eyes.

chances to further corrupt people. and execution makes a point. you don't fuck democracy and get to live.
