You will most likely find that port 80 is being used by another process. You should check if any other programs have bound to port 80. – Vincent P Oct 16 '18 at 5:35

You cannot bind to ports below 1024 without the CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE capability. The root user has it.
Or, you can assign it to an executable with
$ sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /path/to/program
But, caveat, the latter does not work for scripts. You had to add the capability to the interpreter itself, which is a huge security hole. Don't do that.
Perhaps using flask or websockets to expect data on port 80 (if it is not in use) may be a better option.
