Quid pro Quo is something for something, and often a part of a deal. The White House can disdain the very concept: Of Donald Trump having any capability of Making A Deal(?)
In a perverse way of interpreting: The transcript probably does capture normal Donald Trump, in any conversation. If that is conceded, the impeachable part is clear. The "Normal" is abuse of power.
". . . .specifically, we are almost ready to buy more Javelins from the United States for defense purposes."
No price or offer of a quantity is directly mentioned. Immediately--probably normal Donald Trump--there is a price bump and haggling already under way.
"I would like you to do us a favor, though, because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it."
So "Trump Campaign" and "Our Country" are apparently regarded synonymous. The referencing is about the Mueller Investigation. An International value is placed on some nature of information about a computer company, hired by the Democrats. Mostly that is only of interest to Donald Trump, or to the campaign.
Mostly there is clearly a pricing add-on--bypassing the national accounts--to the personal aggrandizement of Donald Trump.
Many could wonder about an intent to create an aura of a coup d' etat regarding the next election.
The quid pro quo is clear, the basis for the abuse of power is clear and obvious. It is moreso if Trump and the White House regard it normal conversation.
"Oh Foreign Leader: As a part of the deal could you launch a nuclear strike against Puerto Rico, they have become so miserable, because of the Democrats?!?
It even sounds a lot like normal Donald Trump!

"Crow, James Crow: Shaken, Not Stirred!'
(Lands of Many Nations not asked to vote on Claims of White Eyes Territory, even!"
