I missed the "Error running wget". That's not provided by Apple so normally jhbuild falls back to curl and 
that does support https. You'll need to either get wget that does support https or make it so jhbuild doesn't 
find it, perhaps by adjusting the path.

I haven't tested with a root-installed python3 either, so you're on your own with that installation. Since 
jhbuild seems to run OK as long as you don't misspell its commands maybe it's not a problem.
