You may ask directly what is the problem. There may be something in his life going wrong that you do not know about. If his tantrums damage the business, you have to talk to the supervisor. At the same time begin looking for another job. Once you get it, explain to the supervisor why you have left. It is common to say that people around 52-55 get into crisis. Life has passed and it did not passed the way one had planned. I am in that age group and I know. But life is good, if he is acting that way, he is probably throwing away whatever is left. Great chances his wife left him.

Learn to ignore the tantrums, he's a little too old to change, and little boy tantrums are best to ignore because he's doing as a power thing. Kids do this to get their own way, and the more they get it the more they do.
He's used to getting his own way.
My son once caused a huge argument and was bad mouthing us all of in attempt to make us bite (I begun to) but then had this crazy thought..
I laughed at him, right in his face! He had seriously been screaming at me, telling me what to do etc...
He didn't like it but it showed his tantrums weren't working. Dominant sometimes my son, very tall and to him his height is power. He'd stand over me looking down at me. But laughing at him did the trick. I maybe be little but he wasn't going to make me feel like the little kid that he was acting, a spoilt brat actually (he's a year older now and has grown up so much since then)
I bet if you make him feel silly, a little boy.... it'll make him think about the way he is in front of his peers

Handle him the same way you handle a 3 year old having temper tantrums.
IGNORE THEM COMPLETELY till they cool down. Just look through him and turn a deaf ear to him.
About the back stabbing if you are sure it is him tell him on his face "We know it is you who is doing it "
Just make a statement about it no accusations to arguments just a statement of fact.

Be nice to him. Treat him like a child...if you want to get on his good side. However, if you don't really care about his feelings or what so ever, just stay as far away from him as possible.
