The American record for women is 1:08:31. That is almost 6 minutes slower. That is a bit embarrassing. That would be about a mile and a half behind Gidey.
Uhh, no. It's 1:07:25, which is four and a half minutes slower, not six (Molly Huddle, Houston 2018). Where did you come up with 1:08:31?
Also worth pointing out the Huddle's time was only two and a half minutes off the world record when she ran it, and will surely be broken in the near future - her own teammate Emily Sisson just missed it by one second last year.

Yeah, Huddle, Flanagan or Goucher would have run at least 66:xx in super shoes, not to mention the magical Valencia course. Between Sisson, Schweizer, Cranny, and Monson, at least one will run 66:xx someday. 65-high from one of those four is as shocking as it’s likely to get—which I realize is a ridiculous thing to say.
Here's the women's half-marathon WR progression (I only included the last 26 years or so), according to Wikipedia (not updated with yesterday's results). As you can see, the record was fairly stable in that 1:04-high to 1:05-low range for quite a while. The first 1:05 was run in 2001; the first 1:04 16 years later; the first 1:03 and first 1:02 in the same year only 4 years after that.

Karissa Schweizer has run 14:26 for the 5000 and 8:25 Indoors for 3000, Those Times Indicate a 1:04- 1:05 is possible 8:25 Indoors is probably 8:21-8:22 for 3000, Way up there in Ability.
Possibly the biological offspring of Ryan and Sara Hall.
Jill Greathouse. She's Biden her time.
Shalane had the talent but was born about a decade and a half too early. Give her the magic shoes early on and the "training" everyone else does, I think she would be 65 capable.

Just needs to stay away from the burritos unlike her teammate.

To answer the question in the title, Mclaughlin and Mu.
If Mu runs 1:52 next year, that would shock the world.
ANY American woman (or man) would shock the world if she ran a half-decent time.
