Answer 2

I believe the correct answer is B. Laertes’s popular support increases Claudius’s insecurities.
People in Denmark love Laertes, and now they are especially feeling for him given that he has lost both his father and his sister in a short period of time. This is why they support him, which is not something Claudius likes and wants to get rid of both Laertes and Hamlet.
