What do you call it when a person holds what the other party wants/needs over their head unless they do him "favor". If Florida is hit by a massive hurricane and DeSantis asks Biden for disaster relief and Biden says he can have it so long as he public announces an investigation into Trump. That wouldn't be leveraging DeSantis?

He did exactly that. He stopped transfer of military aid to Ukraine and then directly asked for personal favors. The implication was as clear as day.
But there's also space for plausible deniability. I'm not surprised his followers can rationalize no criminal intent in his actions. Human beings can rationalize any meaning from any situation.
