I expect, probably, the first thing he would do if he were to visit another planet, would indeed to punch first alien (lizardman) in the face, and inappropriately greet the green lady, before declaring the planet as belonging to federation space.
Bring Democracy to other Planets??
I wonder if there are some Oil Sources on other Planets..

Cause Trumps Tweet, I got somehow interest in the whole Star Treck thing, but I don’t know where to start .. I know Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock where quite cool, but If I watch the whole Enterprise, I would need Years to get to Captain Pickard..

Still fresh, damnit!
It's not really necessary; each series is a new start unless you're a massive fanboy who needs to fit everything into a whole canon, you can enjoy them in isolation. Some understanding of the Kilngons and the pointy eared ones whose name I currently forget (I keep thinking Vogons, but then I remember they're a Douglas Adams species famous for their awful poetry) would help, but can be picked up quite easily. I'm currently watching the series with 'hello to Jason Isaacs' as the captain, and going back to the start I've probably seen a good half of TOS, about half of TNG, and most of the subsequent series I gave up on after a couple of episodes. Star Trek Picard is I think the series after the one with Jason Isaacs in, but it's showing locally at the moment. Actually it's probably because I'm recording it and watching it back later that I'm keeping up with this one, there have been one or two slow episodes which were ideal jumping off points already.

If you want to watch them in chronological order start with Enterprise, then Discovery, then the original series. That might help you understand where Pike and friends fit in, and give you a bit of back story on some things (the look of the Klingons, for example).
Technically it all starts with the movie First Contact. If you really wanna be picky there are individual time travel episodes in each series that predate that, all the way back to the 19th century if I remember correctly. Really, though, those are best as a part of the series they belong to, with nods to others sometimes (DS9 visiting Kirk).
When you get to the last few seasons of TNG they lead into the events that are precursors to DS9, and for a couple seasons they take place at the same time and have crossover scenes (Quark and Bashir show up on TNG).
Same for DS9 giving info about Voyager, which is a ragtag crew (they aren't all Starfleet).
If you want to watch it the way many people our age did start with TNG (BEWARE: the first season or two have a very cheesy TOS feel and stories, but you need some of those later, especially a couple of the Q episodes). You can start watching DS9 where appropriate which makes it feel like TNG is a little bit longer since you are watching both at the same time. Regardless of how you do it I recommend watching the movies in the correct order (except as mentioned earlier) and don't watch Generations until you finish TNG. I know myself and others around my age didn't watch TOS until after TNG, so it will all make sense if you start there.
I could talk all day about all things Trek related, so lemme know if you have questions. I watch it almost every day, so...
