The official version of the conversation between trump and Putin doesn't include any mention of the spy list or anything sus.
Without looking into that because it doesn't really solve the issue, there are people who claim the primary source for what was said, would be a daily caller journalist. If that claim is true and the implications are up to you to figure out, as it doesn't really change anyway.
The request seems to be real while he didn't technically asked for spies. Spies aren't usually on the payroll as a spy either.
Trump himself didn't had to provide putin with the list directly anyway as marolago isn't fort Knox.
In short, a shit Tonne of what ifs and maybe, where a trump is an idiot that thought "Putin wants list of spies? I want list of spies" and stored it in a hotel, would be enough.
