Joe Walsh and Anthony Scaramucci need to do much more to repent.

https://thebulwark.com/for-trump-defectors-the-apology-is-only-the-first-step/

Joe Walsh threatened violence if Trump lost in 2016.

Scaramucci is looking for money to "take-on" Trump. How much of that $$$$$$$$$ will end up in his pocket.

"his is a well-traveled path. (Remember Omarosa?) The cycle goes like this: an ambitious hanger-on flatters Trump, works his or her way into the inner circle, gets fired and cast out, and eventually pens a tell-all memoir or goes on cable news to call the president names. On Trump’s side, it’s also a well-worn routine: he welcomes the new hire with the usual hyperbolic flattery, eventually finds him dispensable, then goes on to tweet about how stupid, incompetent, and treacherous this person is who we would never have heard of if he hadn’t been hired by Donald Trump. Basically, the Michael Cohen treatment."

These slick street level hustlers latch onto a big time con artist (Trump), get what they want then leave.
