Answer:

D).He was unhappy that MacArthur moved north of the 38th parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of MacArthur's choice to move north of the 38th parallel, he made a contention with North Korea. Truman was particularly worried that MacArthur's decision could make China and Russia to come together and attack the United States.
