Most people understand that Trump lied about COVID then flip-flopped and claimed it existed and he signed Operation Warp Speed about six months after the pandemic began. Yes, initially people were skeptical about a Trump vaccine since he's a well known bullshitter who allows people to die just to save face.
Regardless, the vaccines have been thoroughly tested and used. Why Trump voters still don't trust the Trump vaccine is very telling.

The rapid development of coronavirus vaccines is an incontrovertible success story in the United States — and one that not everyone saw happening as quickly as it did.
During the Republican National Convention in August, President Trump’s promise to “produce a vaccine before the end of the year — or maybe even sooner” drew skepticism in some circles. Just over three months later, multiple vaccines are on the verge of receiving emergency authorizations in the United States.
But that was hardly the only promise Trump made about coronavirus vaccines. As with much of Trump’s presidency, he regularly over-promised on the efforts to combat the virus. That is especially true of how many people could be vaccinated by the end of the year, which Trump at one point said would be hundreds of millions. Now it is expected to be a fraction of that.
