Muslims who terrorize them. Poor minorities who soak up their tax money on wasteful entitlement programs. Women who use their tax money to kill poor innocent unborn babies. Immigrants who take "valuable" labor jobs that they weren't willing to perform in the first place.
They want to see the people that are "against" them suffer.

This place is filling up fast!
Depends on perspective really.
It's been said that the collective conscious of America was at it's best when it had a definitive us v them dichotomy that was tangible to the citizenry. ex: U.S.A v C.C.C.P.
That since the fall of the Soviet Union we've been on a downward spiral. We have a nebulous "them" in the form of fanatical Islam which doesn't have a tangible national identity to focus our energies on. We turn inward and divide ourselves into left and right to satisfy this urge for dialectic opposition.
I don't think anyone within America can make it great again. It will take an event from the outside to the create the required inertia. I only wax poetic on this tangent since this is "Trump Talk" and that is the stump he stands on.

I wonder, this seems to be the view a lot of American friends of mine have.
What do you think it would/could be? A war or conflict? An internal uprising? Millenials not buying houses?
It probably has something to do with historical precedents like the Lusitania and Pearl Harbor and what manifested from those events. One could say 9/11 had the potential to be such an event but was squandered by greed and misguided bellicosity. At the same time it's a scary thing and not something one should really hope for etc.

Several nations have tried to find a unifying equivalent to war. The two that spring to mind are the French attempt at the Panama canal and the American space race.
The last war that unified America was WWII. The height of the cold war, IMHO 1949 - 1964, didn't unify us like the space race did but Veit Nam bitterly divided us at the same time.
I have no idea what could unify and focus us today.
Blood and sport and to see people who they perceive as against them suffering.
That's what the American people want as a whole.

Which is the reason why reality TV sells well. Rich people making fools of themselves for their amusement.
It's why Trump sells well.
Rich person making an *** of himself for their amusement on a global stage.
Sounds more like someone upset over Bernie potentially Losing and ready to be "pro-active" by disturbing the peace and Protesting against the "enemie's" campaign.
Because that's the way it should be....
Useful idiots working on behalf of ppl whom seem to have condoned such acts like puppets on strings threating the next person's free choice to elect whom they please. lolProtests
Bernie already lost most of us accepted that. The Bern crowd doesn't live in reality !
The trump crowd does?
Trump doesn't even acknowledge Bernie. Because he is a loser ! Trump is a winner !
Bernie will eventually be a fraud and sell out all of his supporters and support Hillary Clinton. Bernie whose #1 campaign issue has been special interests' money in Politics will support the woman with a billion dollar super-PAC that barely scratched the surface while spending 200 million dollars against him in the Primary. The man whose #2 issue is Wall Street's 1% controlling most of the Country's income will back Wall Street's candidate Hillary Clinton. The Anti-war Bernie Sanders will back the woman that helped send us to war in Iraq, civil war in Syria and overthrew the government of Libya. The man who fought for civil rights his entire life will support the "Antigay for the first 65 years of her life" Hillary Clinton.
Meanwhile Trump is no longer self funded and is now beholden to special interest groups, lobbyists, and all the things that remove his self-reliant appeal.

Which S.I. Groups and lobbyists are giving him money? Are the Republican and Conservatives backing their ideals or are they countries in the middle east buying favors? Like how Clinton gets her money?
He probably could get away with self funding if the media actually did their job.. But here we are..

Pay no attention, it's just an terrible attempt to sour the wave.
I mean even if it's true, at least trump sells out to American interests instead of international ones like Clinton spent the last 8 years peddling herself to.

Don't forget that Bernie's wife ran a Vermont university into bankruptcy too.
US TV network NBC is cutting ties with Donald Trump over "recent derogatory statements" that the veteran businessman made about immigrants.
NBC said the company would now not be airing the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants that are co-owned by Mr Trump.
Responding to the announcement, Mr Trump said he would consider suing NBC.
Earlier this month, he accused Mexicans of adding drugs and crime to the US as he announced he was seeking the Republican presidential nomination.
"They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some I assume are good people, but I speak to border guards, and they tell us what we are getting," he said in his speech on 16 June.
He also pledged to build a "great wall" on the US border with Mexico and insisted it would be paid for by Mexicans.
He later insisted he was criticising US lawmakers, not Mexican people.
