Bill Gates leaves Trump Tower in December after meeting with Donald Trump.

Bill Gates met with President Donald Trump on Monday to discuss global health programs and domestic education.

The Microsoft co-founder met with the president to "discuss the tremendous progress made to-date in these areas and the critical and indispensable role that the United States has played in achieving these gains," Sarah Logan, a spokeswoman for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, said in a statement.

Monday's meeting at the White House comes just days after the Trump administration submitted a budget proposal that cuts foreign aid. "It is time to prioritize the security and well-being of Americans, and to ask the rest of the world to step up and pay its fair share," Trump said.

While Gates didn't endorse a candidate in the 2016 presidential election, he did call Trump "very sophisticated" in an interview last year after the election, likening him to President John Kennedy.

But in a blog post Friday, Gates argued against Trump's proposed cuts to US humanitarian aid overseas, contending that these projects "keep Americans safe."

"[B]y promoting health, security, and economic opportunity, they stabilize vulnerable parts of the world," he wrote.

Gates wrote that US aid helps prevent and eradicate epidemics, citing polio and Ebola as examples. He also praised a program instituted by former President George W. Bush that battles HIV/AIDS in some of the world's poorest countries.

"There are 11 million people with HIV who are alive today because of the medicines that it provides," Gates wrote.

Life, disrupted: In Europe, millions of refugees are still searching for a safe place to settle. Tech should be part of the solution. But is it? CNET investigates.

Solving for XX: The industry seeks to overcome outdated ideas about "women in tech."

President Donald Trump loves to play golf. He is as intertwined in the sport as any president who has ever sat in the White House, and that golf habit has stayed steady since Trump took office in January.

Here is CNN on Trumps golf outings.

Now that Trump is President, the comments are coming back to complicate his golf habit. Trump has visited the two courses near his Mar-a-Lago estate -- Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach and Trump National Golf Course in Jupiter -- 10 times in the first two months of his presidency.

On Monday, White House press secretary Sean Spicer defended Trumps rate of play -- after Trump previously criticized President Barack Obama for playing golf often -- as well as his trips to his own golf courses to work.

Its the same reason he can have lunch or dinner with somebody, Spicer told reporters at the White House. The president is entitled to a bit of privacy at this point, which weve always agreed to. We bring the protective pool, but the president is entitled to a bit of privacy as well.

Spicer said that Trump is using golf differently than President Obama.

You saw him utilize this as an opportunity with [Japanese] Prime Minister [Shinz] Abe to help foster a deeper relationship in southeast Asia, in Asia rather, and have a growing relationship thats going to help U.S. interests, Spicer said.

On a couple of occasions, hes actually conducted meetings there, hes had phone calls, Spicer added. Just because he heads there doesnt mean thats whats happening.

The golf world and the political world collided earlier this year when Trump teed it up on a Sunday with No. 2 golfer in the world Rory McIlroy .
