You have a typo in "walletbroadcast", it won't work like this.
I'm not sure what you're asking here, have you tested these 4 steps already?

At current fees, you'd need to use your entire balance as fee to get it confirmed. My guess is you have about 50 inputs, most of them aren't worth the fee required to send them now.

After you've abandoned this transaction, my advice would be to Enable coin control features (under Settings > Options > Wallet), and use only your largest inputs. Anything under 0.001BTC isn't worth the fee at the moment. Keep them, and use them only if fees ever go down in the future.
