That Donald Trump doesn't know how to use a computer or email? I have no idea how computer-literate Biden is, but he can send emails.
This WTF is wrong with this country. Our leaders are elected using smoke and mirrors.

Yes, in some cases they are.
Our problems are foundational, and I don't think we have the collective courage to face much less solve them.

Our leaders are elected using smoke and mirrors. A lot of younger folks don't use a computer or email, they use their phone as the computer and messaging apps to communicate. Try asking a 20 year old for their email address. I would bet they grin or laugh at the question.

How does one get into college or a good-paying job with the knowledge to use a computer?

How does one get into college or a good-paying job with the knowledge to use a computer? They know how to use the computer as they do their remote learning and homework on the computer. Many software companies / departments forego building applications for the computer if they can be built for mobile devices (Android and iOS). The cost to build native mobile applications and websites with the same functionality is very costly. A lot of older folks still use a computer for their social media although social media companies spend a lot more money building functionality for their mobile platforms.

They may have email accounts to make platforms work better but that does not mean they use email to communicate. My opinion comes from working with teens. I did not make that up in my head.

Every Cobb County GA student has a school issued computer.
My high school age niece regularly uses Power Point in her Marketing class, as well as email, video editing ect...

That's odd. Where do you work with teens?
