Rush doesn't endorse anyone,
Actually he does, but without actually saying he endorses them so when they lose, and they always lose, his waning influence is not obvious to his gullible DittoTards.
By "like and don't like" your MessiahRushie means "endorse and don't endorse."

RUSH: People need leadership. It's one of my mantras. They want leadership. And to a lot of these people, I am their leader. And
they think that I am AWOL on leadership because I don't come out and endorse a candidate, and because I don't come out and go through the candidates' particulars and suggest this is good, this is bad.
I have actually been doing that; if anybody listens regularly, they shouldn't really be having a tough time figuring out who I like and who I don't like.
CALLER: Totally.
RUSH: But nevertheless, maybe
that kind of subtlety is not powerful enough to get through.
