I am not sure that he hated Calhoun, but they became bitter political enemies when Calhoun became the champion of nullification- the right of a state to nullify, i.e. refuse to obey any law they thought was wrong. Of course, the next step would be to secede from the union if the federal government insisted on trying to enforce the nullified law. Calhoun wanted to be the next President and so did what he could to make Jackson's party look bad. It did not help matters when Calhoun's wife led the fight to banish Peggy Eaton from Washington society after Jackson stood up for her.
