President Andrew Jackson was angry at South Carolina due to its defiance of federal tariff laws, specifically the Nullification Crisis in the early 1830s. The state declared that it would not enforce certain tariffs, which they believed were unfairly beneficial to Northern states at the expense of Southern economies. Jackson viewed this as a direct challenge to federal authority and unity, prompting him to assert his commitment to preserving the Union and threatening military action against South Carolina if necessary. His anger stemmed from a deep belief in the supremacy of federal law over state decisions.
