A
James II
💡 Explanation:
The Glencoe massacre caused more Highlanders to support James II and his descendants as the rightful kings of Scotland. In the Glencoe massacre, all MacDonald men, women and children under the age of 70 were killed by the Campbell soldiers on the order of King William III. The MacDonald clan felt betrayed by William III and began supporting the descendants of James II as the rightful kings of Scotland.
Thus, option A is correct.
