Explanation:

He wanted to justify his recommendations for expanding the Korean War.

The problems with the extravagant and selfish general MacArthur had been brewing for months. In the early days of the war in Korea (which began in June 1950), the general had devised some brilliant strategies and military maneuvers that helped save South Korea from falling before the invading forces of communist North Korea.

As US and United Nations forces changed the course of the battle in Korea, MacArthur advocated a policy of pushing North Korea to completely defeat communist forces.

Truman agreed with this plan, but was concerned that the communist government of the People's Republic of China could take the invasion as a hostile act and intervene in the conflict. In October 1950, MacArthur met with Truman and assured him that the chances of a Chinese intervention were slim.

Then, in November and December 1950, hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops crossed into North Korea and threw themselves against the US lines, causing US troops to return to South Korea.

MacArthur then asked permission to bomb communist China and use the Chinese nationalist forces of Taiwan against the People's Republic of China. Truman flatly rejected these requests and a very public discussion began between the two men.
