A. He gave his supporters government jobs to remove those he didn't agree with.

Andrew Jackson implemented the spoils system by appointing loyal supporters to government positions, often replacing existing officeholders with individuals who supported his political agenda. This practice was based on the belief that public offices should belong to the party in power and that it was a privilege for supporters to serve in government roles.
