"He cannot be foolish to say so."

[Nekozuki]

Hi,

I have another question.

I don't know what this sentence means exactly.
"He cannot be foolish to say so."

To me, it seems ambiguous:

The first meaning is: He says so. therefore he cannot be foolish.

The second meaning is: He cannot be foolish. so he will not say so.

What I think is correct?

Thank you.

I think it is the first one ,

i.e. meaning he would not look a fool if he says what he thinks
