How likely is it that Bolso tries to stay in power? I know the media here in the US brings it up in all the coverage but I’m curious what the reality is? Is this just media scaremongering? Would he have institutional support if he tried? Etc etc

Unlikely. Too incompetent for such a thing, same for his followers. Insignificance awaits him from now on.

"Tries to?" Probably.
Manages to?
Unlikely.
The institutions in Brazil who might support a coup are all extremely beholden to foreign institutions. The Brazilian military wouldn't do a coup without explicit backing from the US. And Bolsonaro was so loving stupid that he transformed subtext into text.

Biden came into office trying hard to rehabilitate Bolsonaro. Biden's advisors still celebrate Lava Jato as a resounding anti-corruption success, still wanted Lula to be in prison. But Bolsonaro was just too loving stupid to take advantage of it. Biden wanted to do an Amazon summit with Bolsonaro. All he had to do is show up, talk about how he shared their concerns, and do nothing. Biden even praised how Bolsonaro was handing the Amazon. But instead Bolsonaro told Biden to butt off and that he'd go to war if Washington wanted to intervene. Then Biden offered a partnership between Brazil and NATO, but instead the dumbass Bolsonaro asked Biden, in an open meeting, to interfere in this year's elections. And after Biden went "oh we could never do that" Bolsonaro then started on the whole "Trump was the real winner." This pretty much ended any possibility of the US discretely intervening in Brazil like they did 2016-2018. There would be no plausible deniability. And as such it is unlikely to happen, because if there is one thing Brazilian military brass fears is losing their perks of cooperation with the US.

I guess it's kinda worrying that the US doesn't view Lula as any kind of threat but what are you gonna do.

they have a good formula to handle Lula and the worker's party, and they've done enough damage that the prospect of Brazil ever reaching its previous international power is slim at best.
