So, I have worked in many different fields, sometimes earning minimum wage before becoming a software dev.
I have left a job on the spot once in my life. It was a hot summer day and I was detailing a car in a shop without AC. My boss kept hurrying me, and then he exploded and started screaming at me. He was a part-owner of the company. I told him "get fucked" and left. The other owners were calling me apologizing and I never took the job back.
I am professional and I would never raise my voice, I'm polite and friendly. However, I draw the line at people screaming/swearing at me. It doesn't help anything. I respect my bosses/colleagues and expect the same from them even if they disagree with my opinion.
I suggest you walk, and never look back. Being threatened with being fired is extremely toxic. If I were single, I would have talked back and most likely left. However, as a family guy I might stick around to collect paychecks.
You can also do bare minimum, collect your paycheck and interview elsewhere.
