But this wasn't a sudden tweet. We've learned from the people over at Fox News that this was part of a series of tweets from the Trump.
The series of tweets started with defending the administration response to the Hurricane Maria damage at Puerto Rico This was all after the major complained about Trump's "insufficient" efforts to recover Puerto Rico. Examples are shown below.

Results of recovery efforts will speak much louder than complaints by San Juan Mayor. Doing everything we can to help great people of PR!

Trump also blamed Puerto Rico for slow response to the hurricane. check out Reuters' article on this.
The protesting had started during the "The Star-Spangled Banner" playing last season when football quarterback "Colin Kaepernick" didn't stand as his way to bring attention to police treatment of blacks and social injustice.

Afterwards, Trump made a speech September 22nd in Alabama to fire the players who were apart of the protesting started by Colin. Of course, there was some people who loved the fact that this happened and some who hated the fact that this happened, and commented on Trump's remarks. This controversy boiled for days.
Relatively few players either knelt, sat, or raised their fists in defiance during the National Anthem.
