Cassius did
In their long conversation which forms the bulk of Act I Scene 2 Cassius attempts to convince Brutus that Caesar is a threat to the traditional values of the Roman Republic.
Cassius' main argument is simply that Caesar is an ordinary man:
I had as lief not be as live to be
In awe of such a thing as I myself.
Cassius tells Brutus that Caesar sweats when he is ill, and that he does not swim as strongly as a younger man:- but the common people of Rome love him (and this is somehow dangerous):
And this man
Is now become a God, and Cassius is
A wretched creature.
None of the conspirators in the play have any substantial objection to Caesar, and Cassius is simply eaten up with envy. Caesar knows this, he says:
Yond' Cassius has a lean and hungry look;
He thinks too much, such men are dangerous.
But Caesar is too proud to act on his suspicions. This is his weakness.
