Should I use "go" or "to go" in the following sentence?

How dare you go / to go there?

Thank you.

'How dare you' is followed by the infinitive (base) form of the verb, without 'to'.

@paok1970,
"How dare you go there? " is correct. Examples: "When do you want to go to dinner?"
Go to the store before you go home.

How does the second part of your answer address the question?

@centrox,
Maybe it didn't. We could ask 1970. With all due respect, learning English is probably difficult enough without having to learn the "language of the language". Yes, I used "plural" but I figured it was a somewhat universally understood word.

Not sure what you're getting at here. Are you stoned or something?

@centrox,
When you have blocked a jack handle ( twice ) , when you have blocked a ball peen hammer, when you have kicked off a burglar with a knife ( twice ) , then you can try to bully me.

I have done all those things more than you, and I can prove it, although I choose not to at this time. Telling you when you are making foolish posts, or hinting at it, is not 'bullying'

@centrox,
Please be so helpful as to provide me with the proper terminology for when you insinuate in an online setting that my mind is not functioning normally because of drug use and when you state that my post to you was "foolish". While you are at it, please inform me what you deemed "foolish" in my post to you prior to your question "... stoned or what?"
