Tonight, Trump demands U.S. allies help secure the strait of war moves.

But one nation responds, quote, it's not our war.

Then the conflict keeps driving up fuel prices, raising pressure on the White House to help rein in costs.

And the Save America Act is now on fast track for a vote in the Senate.

And the 11th hour gets underway on this Monday night.

Good evening once again.

I am Stephanie Ruhl.

On the 17th day of Donald Trump's war with Iran,

he openly pleaded with America's allies to help him

reopen the Strait of Formuz, which, while also claiming he doesn't need anybody to help him get

that done. Watch this. We strongly encourage the other nations to get involved with us and get

involved quickly and with great enthusiasm.

I have that from a number of them, and I'd like to say their names, but frankly, I don't know if they would want me to or not because maybe they don't want to be targeted.

Numerous countries have told me they're on the way.

Some are very enthusiastic about it, and some are in summer countries that we've

helped for many, many years. We've protected them from horrible outside sources, and they

weren't that enthusiastic. And the level of enthusiasm matters to me. My attitude is we don't need anybody.

We're the strongest nation in the world. We have the strongest military by far in the world.

We don't need them. But it's interesting. I'm almost doing it in some cases, not because we need

them, but because I want to find out how they react.

Because I've been saying for years that if we ever did need them, they won't be there. Not all of them, but they won't be there.

Hmm, confusing. This comes after President Trump threatened our NATO allies if they didn't help us.
