Indeed they have already done so - many left-wing voters are swearing off voting for Biden, over his support for the Gaza genocide. This guarantees a Trump victory.

The issue is that the "ethics and morals" of the powerful are in reality weapons pointed at working people. If using state power gained through elections to improve the lives of the people who elected you is immoral or unethical, your system of ethics is a farce.
With a populace that cares about ethics and morals, that would be a sensible strategy, but unfortunately about half the voting US population doesn't give a flying fuck about either any more.
Additionally, the danger for Democrats going for low blows and breaking tradition is that they might lose a significant part of their own voters as a result.
