Answer 1

Brutus’ reason for wishing to get rid of Caesar is purely based on his mere suspicion that Caesar might become a tyrant in future.

Explanation:

Brutus condemns Caesar on mere suspicion with no satisfactory proof that Caesar will misuse his position. He says, ‘I know no personal cause to spurn at him, but for the general.’ His idealism leads him to act on hypothetical fears of future tyranny rather than concrete evidence.
