Yeah that's actually kind of tough. If they try to tighten control but don't have enough support, it would lead to them getting couped even earlier for being "evil dictators".
It's tricky, and I obviously have no idea how to pull it off. The best I can think is tight cooperation with Cuba and Venezuela. Adopt their methods or even bring in some of their people to help secure things.
If all those countries form a bloc effectively and quickly enough, maybe they could rebuff the crumbling American empire. But it's risky even for Venezuela and Cuba.
But I doubt most of the leftists winning right now want or are willing to do any of that anyway.

I am certain that Evo will be thinking this along with several other hardline members of MAS. Whether the conditions actually permit it is the problem though.
what party in the region in most likely/able to do so?
my guess would be MAS in Bolivia. The fact that they did manage to weather the year-long coup and come back in basically full force seems more than just reassuring. that's durable and a contrast from how other coups have played out and from latam electoral left parties in general, with the notable exception of Chavez and PSUV. Decisions like this are a positive direction.
It's another pink tide. If they don't tighten their control after getting elected, everything is just gonna repeat again.
There's a reason Cuba and Venezuela haven't had a successful coup any time recently despite the US very much trying.

Biggest antifacist action in recent history
Mariupol tho?
edit: more recent than bolivia and obviously historic as part of a wider context
Not even close to what they did in Bolivia
