If any state just stopped abiding by the law other states will want to try it as well and that would result in the destruction of our union.

Who lead the fight against the tariff of abominations?
The man most against it was Vice-President John C. Calhoun who resigned his post in order to run for the Senate. Andrew Jackson signed the bill for this tariff which was a reduction over the tariff of 1828. It was mostly written by ex-President John Quincy Adams. I do not know of any past or future presidents who actively were against it.
Why was the tariff of abominations important?
The tariff of abomination eventually led to the Nullification Crisis in South Carolina. John C. Calhoon wanted to nullify this tariff because it put South Carolina at an disadvantage regarding the selling of their goods. Andrew Jackson, the president at the time, was outraged and even threatened the "Force Act" in order to get South Carolina to cooperate with the federal government. This is when the famous debate took place between Robert Hayne and Daniel Webster. Webster was supporting the federal gov and cried "Liberty and Union, now and for ever, one and inseparable!" The whole predicament was an issue of states' rights versus national power. In the end, Jackson had a private meeting with Henry Clay and they decided to lower the tariff over a ten year time span as long as South Carolina promised not to nullify the tariff.
