I can't.
If it's a link, the screen reader lets me execute the action associated
with the link, not the onclick action.
If you want me to click on it you'll need to manipulate it so the screen
reader thinks it is clickable.
There are some cases wher I can click on a link using some screen reader
mouse interaction, but it's unreliable, and it's better to either click
on something the screen reader thinks is clickable or run the link
action associated with something the screen reader thinks is a link.

I do not know. I'm not a web front end person; I don't know CSS.
I'm an end user in this space.

That's not what I'm seeing.
