Hillary Clinton doesn’t need to get debate questions in advance, her campaign said Tuesday by invoking the candidate’s strong performances against Donald Trump – without denying that she actually did get tipped off on at least two occasions.

Clinton’s campaign spoke out about the charged issue Tuesday, a day after CNN announced that its relationship had ended with the longtime Democratic operative Donna Brazile, who served as an on-air commentator until the startling revelations about debate questions.

Brazile, a longtime Clinton supporter who remained officially neutral in the race, showed up in hacked emails posted on WikiLeaks as having twice forwarded questions to the Clinton camp before a debate and a campaign forum on at least two occasions.

‘Donna’s doing a great job at the DNC,’ a Clinton official told traveling reporters Tuesday. She ‘has been one of the most important accomplished leaders in our party and a good friend to many of us.’

SHE'S PREPARED: The Clinton campaign said Tuesday that Hillary Clinton doesn't need to get debate questions in advance because she 'performs well' without them

‘I think you would look at the debate stage and how Hillary Clinton performed in all ten debates and see how she’s not somebody who needs to get the questions in advance to perform well,’ the official continued.

‘And I would note that if you see Donald Trump on the debate stage I am quite confident that getting any questions in advance for him would not have helped.’

The official declined to answer direct questions about whether it was wrong for Brazile to have passed on questions, as she is alleged to have done.

CNN has cut all ties with Brazile, who stepped in as the interim chairwoman of the Democratic Party after the previous chair had to go following the release of hacked emails.

The move followed revelations that Brazile shared at least two questions with Hillary Clinton's campaign in advance of CNN-hosted Democratic debates and town hall broadcasts.

'We are completely uncomfortable with what we have learned about her interactions with the Clinton campaign while she was a CNN contributor,' the network's PR department said in a statement.

Brazile's actions were uncovered in emails released by WikiLeaks after a hacker penetrated the Gmail account of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta.

On Monday the anti-secrecy group published a March 5 email showing Brazile tipping off Podesta and Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri about a question that an audience member would ask a day later during a debate against rival Bernie Sanders.

The event, hosted in water-poisoned Flint, Michigan, was moderated by CNN anchors Don Lemon and Anderson Cooper.

'One of the questions directed to HRC tomorrow is from a woman with a rash,' Brazile wrote.

'Her family has lead poison and she will ask what, if anything, will Hillary do as president to help the ppl [people] of Flint.'

A woman named Lee-Anne Walters ended up asking the question.

'After my family, the city of Flint and the children in D.C. were poisoned by lead, will you make a personal promise to me right now that, as president, in your first 100 days in office, you will make it a requirement that all public water systems must remove all lead service lines throughout the entire United States, and notification made to the citizens that have said service lines?' Walters asked.

Brazile told Megyn Kelly on Fox two weeks ago that the hacked emails had been altered, saying she was being 'persecuted'

FORESHADOWING: Brazile tweeted this message around dinnertime Sunday night

Republicans' hackles shot up last month when a Wikileaks email dated March 12 showed Brazile sending Palmieri a question about death penalty politics, which an exonerated death row inmate asked her the next night – almost verbatim – during a CNN-hosted town hall.

'From time to time I get the questions in advance,' Brazile wrote, according to the WikiLeaks-released email.

CNN employed Brazile as a paid commentator. She frequently advocated for Democratic candidates on the network until she took over the helm of the Democratic National Committee following the resignation of chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz – who was forced out amid charges of anti-Sanders partisanship.

When the death penalty email became public on October 14, she voluntarily 'suspended' her CNN contract, according to two network sources.

At the same time, she vehemently denied sending the March 12 email, telling Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly that she was being 'persecuted' over an email Russian hackers had likely inserted to embarrass her.

'I am not going to try to validate falsified information,' she declared.

PLAYER: Brazile has been a long-time Demorcatic Party insider but her future is now in doubt

CNN's statement on Monday claimed the network 'accepted Donna Brazile's resignation as a CNN contributor' on October 14.

The network denied ever giving her 'access to any questions, prep material, attendee list, background information or meetings in advance of a town hall or debate.

Just before noon on Monday, Brazile tweeted: 'Thank you @CNN. Honored to be a Democratic Strategist and commentator on the network. Godspeed to all my former colleagues.'

On Sunday afternoon, seeming to anticipate more headaches, she tweeted: 'Please, God, let this end soon.'

Brazile referred media questions to a statement she issued on October 11, in which she claimed that 'as a longtime political activist with deep ties to our party, I supported all of our candidates for president. I often shared my thoughts with each and every campaign, and any suggestions that indicate otherwise are simply untrue.'
