It is not designed to.

View these items in your synced Photo Library.

I am trying to upload videos to Youtube from a laptop. What is the best way to do so if it exists on iCloud Photo if that directory does not show in Finder?

in Finder, scroll down to MEDIA > PHOTOS

You should see your local, not iCloud, photo library and can select the item to want to upload.
