I'm not quite sure how this would even be possible.
Each political party in each state chooses their own slate of electors. The party that wins the popular vote in that state gets their slate electors chosen. If Biden wins GA, the electors of the GA Democratic party are chosen to cast their votes in December.
So we are operating under the assumption that Trump is going to somehow convince 37 Democrat-appointed electors to vote for him instead? And that's ignoring the fact that most states require electors to "pledge" their votes to their party's candidate, and this was upheld by the Supreme Court earlier this year.
And even if 37 electors were somehow able to defect from Biden, that would result in a Congressional election.

Everything in this post is my fault.
