You are missing the nuance of what I'm saying, but I don't have the energy to explain it right now.
Are you the Cory Klein in Minnesota (with whom I went to college)?

That's not particularly nuanced: you can probably find may examples of actions that are legal on a state level, but illegal on a Federal level.

Nope, although there are less than 50 Cory Kleins in the United States, so hooray for unlikely probabilities!
The people who live in Washington only decide a subset of the laws for the state. It is still illegal to possess or consume weed in Washington because WA is a part of the United States of America, where weed is illegal nationwide.
The "United States of America" as a political body is defined by the borders of the United States of America (within which WA is completely contained), it is not located in Washington DC.
