Lebanese Forces supporters, who are trying to ride the revolution's waves, now calling Sethrida Geagea 'the mother of the cause'. So for those not up to date: Aoun is everyone's daddy and Gebran's mom + Sethrida are everyone's mommy. Very interesting.https://twitter.com/LebaneseVoices/status/1191457697364885504?s=19 …
