When I woke up this morning I saw the headline and I thought "here we go again". I watched the video and my impression is that he said that sentence in his classic dementia rambling, right after it he said "he should have ended it".

Basically he was blaming Zelensky for not having negotiated right away and Biden for not having pushed for it.

Not sure if this makes it any better, but at least I got the impression he mispoke saying that particular thing.

No, I'm done giving him the benefit of the doubt. The President of the United States should be able to clearly articulate a thought.

This is not giving him any benefit of the doubt, it's trying to understand what he wanted to say given the fact that he is not able to articulate a thought. That is what I understood from the video, he rambles all the time and says random stuff, I think it's a matter of fact he can't articulate a thought. Sure, it's a disgrace that one of the most powerful men in the world (if not the most) can't do that, but here we are.
