A segment on Newsmax which saw its host, Grant Stinchfield, lose his temper on-air has gone viral. The clip shows him yelling and screaming at a veteran for mildly criticizing the former POTUS while discussing the situation of several Americans in Afghanistan.
Not many were aware of Grant until the latest drama, but his treatment of Joe Saboe, who was only offering his opinion about the role of the administration in rescuing Americans and Afghan allies who are stuck after the Taliban takeover, has led Twitter users to have a go at him.

Grant Stinchfield cuts off the veteran
Grant was seen speaking to Joe on-air about the “hostage situation” in Afghanistan when the latter criticized “multiple administrations” for the current condition of several Americans under Taliban’s rule.
However, when Joe pointed that “the Trump administration’s efforts here were fairly weak”, Grant was visibly irked.
The host, who until this point tried to defend Trump by saying “this didn’t happen under President Trump”, tells Joe that he was running out of time, and tells the crew to “cut him off”.
His tantrums get worse a few moments later as he starts to yell pointing at the camera: “God bless you for being a veteran, god bless you for trying to get Americans out, but don’t come on this program and take the talking points of the left and blame President Trump! That’s not helping anybody.”
The clip of the host losing his temper on air has gone viral and Grant is drawing a lot of criticism.

Twitter slams anchor for yelling at veteran

One tweeted, “Congratulations @newsmax on hiring GrantStinchfield! His petulant outburst against a veteran because he didn’t agree with what he was saying was disgusting. He’s obviously got a lot of anger and father issues. Maybe he should smile more.”
