Show http:// again in chrome
Since Chrome 83 there is an omnibox-context-menu-show-full-urls
flag that enables showing full URLs in the omnibox.
chrome://flags/#omnibox-context-menu-show-full-urls
- Copy and paste the URL.

The easiest solution now is to just to download the Suspicious Site Reporter extension from the Chrome Store. And that's it.

Previously, setting the omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-trivial-subdomains
flag was the easiest way to show the "https://www." back again, but it has been removed as of Chrome 76.
chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-trivial-subdomains
Just for future reference, in the current chromium version you need to disable both of the following flags in order to get the full URL:
chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-scheme
chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-trivial-subdomains
Edit: See above answer
You can navigate to chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-scheme-and-subdomains
and disable Omnibox UI Hide Steady-State URL Scheme and Trivial Subdomains.
