While Calhoun had previously voted for tariffs to protect new industries , he was opposed to the Tariff of 1828. When the bill appeared in Senate, Calhoun had decided he would be the deciding vote against it. However, the tariff passed. In protest, Calhoun encouraged nullification of the tariff in his home state of South Carolina which prompted President Jackson to send warships to the harbor to enforce it. .

What did John C Calhoun do that enraged Andrew Jackson?

Jackson and Calhoun disagreed about several issues, including tariffs and nullification. In 1818, Jackson learned of documents Calhoun wrote urging censure of Jackson for his invasion of Florida and the capture of Pensacola during the First Seminole War. That was the "last straw" for Jackson. He cut off Calhoun and removed Calhoun's allies from the cabinet.
