Wow man, what a story!! I've actually been in a couple of similar situations myself. You had amazing patience sticking it out for as long as you did. I would have bailed probably after the first week, if not sooner.
Heck, just recently I got fired for being honest. Yep. Got a call from the woman who hired me, asking how things were going. I told her. I said it's been a week and I haven't been able to accomplish much because of server problems, poor response time, and generally not a whole lot of help from her team members. I said hey, maybe they just aren't that good at mentoring new people... though I doubted any of it was intentional. That was it. It was as if I had used a racial slur to describe her mother. In short, she said I had just "trashed" her team, and that she didn't think it was going to work out. Didn't matter that I apologized and said hey, I'm frustrated because it's been hard to get stuff done. Nope, that was all it took. So... all the trouble of interviewing, hiring, reading a bunch of manuals to get up to speed on stuff, four days busting my butt to produce, and I get axed for honesty... to the one person you should always be able to be honest with -- YOUR BOSS. Wow. Talk about a touchy-feely, wear-your-heart-on-your-sleeve type. I'm glad it happened now, before I got anymore invested into it.
