On my 2009 lmm duramax, in the morning, when I try to start it, I hear a click. So it connect the jumpstarter to the truck it turns on is it the battery or something else

Based on the fact it started fine when jumped Id say it is the batteries. IF it were corroded conectons it would have had the same problem with the jump too.

When my batteries went out I had the same issue, it started fine until the one start it didn't. New batteries solved my issue.

Replace BOTH your batteries and Im betting you will be good to go.

That's no necessarily true since you would be cranking off of a healthy battery and effectively bypassing, or partially bypassing the trucks cranking batteries. This would make the state of there terminals irrelevant. you could jump the truck with no batteries in it and it would start off the donor vehicle and run off the alternator.
