Your answer would be "to surround himself with loyal supporters"

The reason why Andrew Jackson removed many government workers from office after becoming president was because to surround himself with loyal supporters.

Andrew Jackson:

Andrew Jackson was the 7th president of the United States. He served from March 4, 1829 through March 4, 1837.

Explanation:

The reason why "to surround himself with loyal supporters" is the correct answer is because eh wanted people that were in the government to support him while he was in the president's seat. In other words, he wanted people in the government to agree with what he wants to do in the country, so it would be easier for him to make decisions without having other people apart of the government disagree with him. When he was removing people, he pretty much removed people by the political party they are apart of. To sum it all up, Andrew Jackson removed people from the government if they were not part of the same political party as him. This is what made the government during the time very spoiled when he was in office, since people were given the government position because of their political party and not actually deserving it. This is the reason why this answer choice would be correct.

Why the other answer choices are incorrect:

The reason why answer choice "to replace ineffective, poorly-trained staff" is incorrect because:

There were MANY people in the government while he was in office that were every well-trained, but were removed from the government because they were not in the same political party as Andrew Jackson, in which they didn't support him. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

The reason why answer choice "to win the support of his opponents" is incorrect because:

Andrew Jackson did not remove people from the government to show other countries that he had a lot of power, he removed them because he wanted a government that agreed with the things that he wanted to do. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

The reason why answer choice "to fill Congress with lawmakers who agreed with him" is incorrect because:

This is actually the answer choice that tricks people, this is an answer choice that would trick people into answering since it seems right. This would be incorrect because when you read the question, it says "government workers." This means that it's talking about government workers in a whole, not just Congress. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.
