Not to step on Rick commenting but perhaps you can expand your imagination for a second.
In a summary of a call Mr Trump said (and I paraphrase) I got aid but I want a favor in return. Mr Trump later admitted it was a perfect call and he said perfect things.
It is an obvious quid pro quo in my opinion. O but not only in my opinion but apparently almost everyone who heard the call "knew" it was a quid pro quo as aides went scurrying around looking for attorneys and they went around covering it up. Not only them but people at State who were aware of the efforts of Giuliani et al "knew" it was a quid pro quo and said so in texts.
Now just because Mr Trump says it was not quid pro quo does not make it so. He lies so much nothing he says is credible.
So when someone says Mr Trump admitted he committed crimes, what is meant (can't you read the subtext?) is Mr Trump admitted he said what was in the summary which was the same as admitting, as almost everyone privy to the call understood, he committed crimes.
Geeeez
Indeed. "Do us a favor, though..." is English for quid pro quo.

Everything that Trump says, if you take the opposite, then you'll have reality .
