Maybe they don't speak out because they cannot in good conscience support Harris. I could give a half dozen reasons why they might feel that way but let me just pull one out of the hat.

Maybe they don't speak out because they cannot in good conscience support Harris. I could give a half dozen reasons why they might feel that way but let me just pull one out of the hat. Here she is, a few months ago: "I have studied the map... the Israelis must not go into Rafah." You may not know any but there are a good number of good people (several writers for The Dispatch come to mind) who feel they cannot in good conscience support either candidate. The fact that you cannot understand or even countenance such people, and therefore don't know how to talk to them, may be one of the reasons Harris loses.
Good conscience? what exactly does that mean in an election, where not voting IS essentially a vote for Trump? Politics is not like going to the grocery store, where you get everything on your list, and go home satisfied. Politics is about voting for the person who most closely allies with your values. In this election it is quite clear: A vote for Harris is a vote for American democracy. A vote for Trump is vote for a would be dictator. And also is a vote for a 36 count convicted felon. How does that align with your values? A felon cannot get a job working for the USPS!
It's not a question of supporting Harris or not. They can speak out against trump without endorsing her. It's a question of defending the Constitution and our country's democracy. Plain and simple.
"Plain and simple," you say. I don't know you but think I can say without being insulting that the people in question (former presidents, generals, etc) probably have more experience with difficult decisions than you do. And they have decided not to speak out. So maybe it's not as plain and simple as you think. Maybe, even, they don't think the situation is as apocalyptic as you think.
You are just making things up. Mattis and Milley are the ones who made the statements to Woodward. Calling him facist to the core. Sure but Harris said not to go to Rafah. The fact that you think that those things are remotely the same is the problem here. You’re just a troll and perfect for the Dispatch. Jonah Goldberg? Please.
But there's a candidate who says that January 6th was a day of peace and love. I'll take Harris re-educating herself over Israel over a man who will NEVER admit that he was wrong.
